Sweet shot -- nice BG and I love the evidence of a breeze as seen by the motion of the feathers. Might be me but the head looks a touch soft (I am also not on my usual monitor)

Nice shot Bill. I agree with some USM on the head.

The shot is very nice. I think there is a little too much room on top. Hopefully you can get this guy again when his breeding plumage comes in fully.

Hi Bill. I especially like the tousled feathers in this shot. Just a little off the top would make this about perfect for me.
