Lovely detailed shot. The light looks a little harsh, but nicely handled. Perhaps just a lift around the eye area would benefit. The inclusion of habitat is great too. Nice shot!

Nice shot. As Dawn says - needs the gamma up a bit.
How far away was the nest ? was the lens on the 400mm end ?
Cheers

Hi Joe.
Very nice capture,maybe a little highlite in the eye just to set it off.
Cheers Keith.

I'd agree about the light, I would also like a little more lower angle perhaps?

Other than that, it works for me !
