Excellent detail with a nice pose and perch, Ken. This is one where the zoom would have come in handy as I think a touch more canvas on the left would be nice here.

Such a stately looking bird. I'm curious how they compare in size to say...a Bald Eagle. Really nice detail in this Ken. I agree with Dennis a little more room on the left might be nice.

Nice portrait of my favorite eagle. Colours seem a little subdued from the ones I saw - maybe it's just seasonal changes.
Needs more room on the left, and would be easy to add sky canvas, a little harder to extend the branch.
Nice catch!

Nice look at this beauty, Ken. Nice pose and I like that old weathered perch.

Thanks everybody, the "tight" crop was selected to remove background clutter
