Pretty bird Scott. I like the pose and the dragon fly. It looks a little soft though.

Nice light. Like the prey in the beak. Could use just a little sharpening.

Scott, Plain or spicy? lol. I like the pose with the prey item and your composition. Seems a bit soft to me; was this a large crop?

I like this, nice light, perch, food in the beak. I think it could sharpen up more and look even better.

Nice catch for both of you. Light a bit harsh.

Interesting behavior Scott. I agree that it's soft.

Great shot Scott, the DF in the beak's a nice touch.
Happy Holidays to you and your family!
