Love the light and detail in this Major, not sure about the perch but what can you do. :rolleyes: Either way it's a superb shot of this great little raptor..

Yes the perch is not exactly the best in the world but submitted it because of the lovely evening light showing the detail of the bird well. :smile:

The lighting is superb and the expression priceless! I like the way the talons are showing.
