missed this one on my first round through where I picked out the better photos first. A slight increase in dof would help a little but I like the water droplets and wet brown feathers on the top of his head.

An extremely diffucult image to pull off and the author has done a great job with the subject matter. Variable details from round to linear show off the textures of the natural world in spectacular fashion. Great background control. A very worthy image for the challenge and should be a top 25 image.
