Great action shot here Jerry.

They really seem to have intense eyes. I do like the slightly backlit wing on the male here.

The whites seem a bit muddy, but you caught a very nice pose on a nice perch.

I like this a lot Jerry. I love that golden light hitting the wing. Nice action capture with a nice clean background and the details look good too. We'll done!  devil

This is one of the better mating images I have seen in awhile Jerry. Great position, nice clean branch extended with both facing your way. Nice work!
