Beautiful photo! I'm glad that it won a ribbon!
Just two questions that I "have" to know now LOL Was it rain or snow (my guess is rain given the background) and secondly, was this taken through a window? :) Just curiosity now. :)

I've never seen a raptor this fluffed up lol. The rain is an added textural bonus. Congrats on the ribbon and a new PB!
