Thats a beauty Alan. Can I see signs of telemetry under the tail, is it a falconers bird? Not that I mind, because it is still a really nice shot.

No it's wild.
I zoomed in on the full size version, and it's his tail feathers over lapping eachother.

Hi Alan,
Lovely shot. Also the different colours in de background (blue and white of the clouds).

Bit off the norm for you Alan
Nice comp and pose - tad of sharpening on the eye and a bit less brightness plus a bit more saturation perhaps?

Hi Alan,
Very nice shot. The repost just has that extra punch, so wins it for me.

Cracking shot - maybe a tad large in the frame but this is a very minor nit!
