Very interesting looking perch. I wish he had looked back toward the camera some but still very nice as is. :)

Nice vertical patterns on the perch. The eye is very striking and adds to the picture. I agree with the comment about having the bird looking more towards us but still to the side. In this one he seems to be looking away

The bird facing away is offset by the interest in the palm frond perch. Overall a very nice image.

I suppose because we get Ospreys over here, we don't normally see them on Palm Trees so this is unusual!

Nice shot Daniel. 8) :)
