This one looks a little sharper than the last one. Love the black and white pattern of the tail feathers; this comp shows it off well. The eye looks great, but might stand out better if the dark, dark black around it were lightened just a smidge. I think? Bg and perch do nothing but highlight all the goodness in the portrait of this little beauty.
