A bit left ?

Short Eared Owl.
1/100@f6.3
iso 500.
Nikon D7000 Nikon 300ml 2.8.
Recon this Owl was picking the bits left from it's last Vole.

Thanks for looking and your feedback on my last post.

At 300 shot from the car presumably? I like the BG and the shape of the birds back in this one

Bob

Is he contemplating that blade of grass and wondering whether you will remove it from the final image?

David

Nicely captured Keith. I think it might be a stronger image if it was a little clearer what it was doing i.e. if we could actually see what it was eating, but good colours and details and a great looking SEO.

Matt

Thanks Bob yes it was my trusty 3300 from my car,David that bit of grass ,some say leave it others take it out Matt this is the worst image of the owl in this pose not sure if he was cleaning it's talon or it's beak,i will post some more soon.

thanks keith.

Great image Keith but I prefer the earlier shot with the head turn. Great BG too by the way.

Nick.

I think the lack of eye contact detracts a little here, but I am sure you have lots more, maybe a slight bit of dodging to lighten the eye a tad would help?

Not as strong as your previous posts Keith due, as Phil H has mentioned, lack of eye contact. Still a decent image though and would certainly be useful to show certain behaviours.

Thanks Phil i will try a bit of dodging on the eye.

Keith.

Very nice Keith. Prefer the previous shots though where there was more eye contact

Oscar

The detail is phenomenal, but I agree with the other comments about the odd pose.
