Captured this image this morning at Crown Hill Park. Finally got my lens back and the auto focus is still giving me problems. Anyone know about re-chipping the lens? Thanks for looking.

I like the composition with the the branch and bird location. The sparrow hawk appears sharp to me (I wouldn't believe you had AF trouble). Maybe a little right so that the fluffed feathers don't appear to touch the branch to the viewer's left?
Must have been a cold morning there given the amount of fluffed feathers.

Unusual image Dan, love the feathers!

That is a really nice shot Dan. I love it. The point merger is probably only distracting to those of us who had teachers who taught us about them. Hello Clone Tool?
