Nice shot. Conveys a great sense of motion, and the shape of the bird on the clear background is great.

i like how you added the nest into the frame, it adds so much more interest then those who just crop with the bird in frame. beautiful job. perfect detail as well

I don't necessarily get the sunset feeling from this image, but it is a really great shot. The bird is very sharp with lots of details, and I like that you left part of the nest in the frame so that we can see where he's headed.
