A very good bird, difficult to approach in my experience. There's a bit more noise than I'd expect. Heavy crop or post-processing artifact?

Jim what an interesting bird, nice photographic capture. The red eye is very striking. Some visual interference between the beak and background. Not sure how to change that I think you have already mention a good attempt. Amazing great experience ... I am sure.

I like the pose and the color. Well composed. It might be a tiny bit dark which could have contributed to some of the noise in the image.

Very good, Jim. Excellent detail. I've yet to get a decent image of one of these and would love to do so. Nice head turn.
