Very nice with a great stern look from the bird, only nit is the perch which I find non-complimentary and a bit dominant....

Lovely shot, great details, colours and background. My only nit is the perch, as already mentioned.

A superb portrait of this bird and the detail is spot on as is the BG. I have to agree with Phil about the perch it is a tad domineering, perhaps because of the stripped bark, otherwise a cracking image.

Cracking bird and lovely and sharp. Deserves a better perch though as mentioned. Cheers, Mark

All the nits covered for me, a fine shot of a fine bird.
