Jerry,

you have got a good image from the technical point of view, meaning exposure and sharpness are very good. From composition point of view I like the relatively low angle of photography, the colors of the reflection, as well the slight turn of the head of the bird towards the viewer. Personally I would have like to see a bit more of the background wing.

Excellent detail indeed, Jery and a reallynice head turn. I do wish the wing position were slightly different to provide more separation of the rear wing and the head.

Nice angle and techs on this one Jerry. Good job getting some behavior in this as well.
