A good exposure Scott. Nice detail in the bird where it counts. I like the water drops and the wing flap pose. Blurred wings show the action nicely.

You captured a good pose here and kept the focus on the face/eye where it is most important. Your visit to AZ was quite productive.

Love those photogenic stretches! Very nice, Scott. The airborne water drops behind the bird say it all.
