Another excellent monochrome bird and setting. Nice detail and exposure. The texture of the perch adds to the image as well.

Great pose, excellent detail, bright eye, nice persch.
Tiny nits - I'd remove the 2 little blips hanging from the perch - one next to the tail, and the white one by the right foot.
Then - perfect!

Complete DOF and sharp details, excellent exposure, comp, and BG Rob.
Like that bit of light area above its head, this bird's heaven sent
Well done!

I agree with Richard - the monochrome look here is wonderful. An excellent image all around Rob.

Very good bird portrait Rob. The glimpse of ligt in the eye is one detail that makes a lot for the total impression of the photo.
Well done!
