White-tailed Kite

White-tailed Kite in flight (view Larger)

Jerry - beautiful image, lovely sharp eye, but what a pity you didn't get his entire wing in the frame!! (Don't worry, I know the feeling!). Rgds Carole

I seem to remember a very similar shot from not too long ago (maybe the same?) but with the entire wing showing and with comments suggesting a crop to bring the attention more to the eye. This is shown here and that's why I like it: first thing I see is the beautiful eye, then I follow the direction it's looking along its wing. Brightening could bring out some more details of the wing, but this is a beautifully composed picture nonetheless.
