I was apparently close to the nest or young since this bird and another kept moving between two perchs, which made getting a clean BG quite easy.

I like the shot you captured, the only thing is that BG perch. Other then that - crisp and nice action

I like the balancing act you've captured with the wings raised and one foot, one toe on the perch! Very pleasing composition.

Fantastic pose! I wish there was some separation between the wing and head.

The YL appears to be on 'alert' in this image, Timothy. Very well done.

Looks like it's about to fall off. Nice pose. Hope not too close to the nest.

Great bg and interesting pose, Tim!
A slight body turn your way would have been even better ...

It would have been "a perfect shot" if not for the second perch. Even though, it is great!
