Compression made this blurry in sections. Nice shot, love the red feet.

Excellent detail, though the noise in the sky seems out of place against the detailing of the bird itself, and adds an incongruousness that seems unintentional. A good deal of what seems to be thought good in wildlife photography is anthropomorphic - and you have a suitably 'human' character here - there's something proud and sneering about the bird - I ust wish you'd sorted out the sky some.

the tags on the feet are a little distracting

Nice subject. The multiple tags on its feet add interest imo. Good composition. I like the brown line against the light blue sky. Well done.

Good color and subject, shame that the radio transmitter and leg tags are so obvious. Makes him look a lot less wild.
