I had an opportunity to photograph some birds on a recent trip abroad.

Please let me know your thoughts and how I might improve this image.

Thanks.

Liz - a nice capture but it could be improved with a little more space between the head and the top and side of the image. if you must cut some of the head off, it needs to be more delibrate - like you meant it to be. As posted the crop of the image looks like amistake.

Good focus and exposure - nice.

I chose an unusual angle for this shot and to accomplish "filling the frame"; however, as you point out Kenneth, the too close cropping destroyed what would have been a good photo.  I will offer two new shots and hope that I have corrected the error.  Thanks for your input - I truly do appreciate it.
