Very nice, good looking bird. Maybe a little shifted to the right in the frame?

Nice one John :toast:

Is this from the same session as the one before, or have you now got them following the car
:wink:

Actually John, if I said anything about changing the comp I'd say shift a tad left - make a really nice editorial comp :wavey:

A mean looking youngster, I like it :wavey:

NIce shot John. I'd agree with Andy and shift it a tad left to give the bird a bit more space to look into.

Wow, wonderful to get one to come down to your roadkills. I have tried but not succeeded.
Composition could be more interesting I presume, but comments have already been made about that.

Good use of a road kill, I have tried using them a couple of times but not had much luck. Great image. :toast:

Cracking shot with a nice pose. As has been said, the harsh light wasn't kind, but it's still a darn fine image.

Nice one John. I too tried this once but failed miserably. :rolleyes:
