I like this one, the perch adds to this image, as well as the clean BG. Reminds me of seeing hawks perched on big rolled hay bales in South Dakota, no trees nearby. I would like to see the hawks, breast just a bit darker. TFS.

Beautiful light, and interesting perch.
Tack-sharp and nice BG.
The tiniest of nits - that bird poop on the (?whatever it is?) could go!
Congrats on a fine WP

Somehow, I missed this image. Love the overall atmosphere, much more than 'just' a bird shot ! Well-deserved WP. Cheers, Hans

David: I really like how the bird is presented against a very simple and complimentary two tone background. The hawk seems to be keeping an eye on you. Congrats on the WP. Richard
