Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that contributes well to the open challenge

A good frontal bird study that captures his profile well though his eye just seems a tad on the soft side, the feathers under his beak appear sharper than those in the vicinity of his eye just a slight bringing forward of the focus would have sharpened the eye just enough to give it that bit more impact. I feel the exposure is also ever so slightly a little on the bright side just easing back a fraction would have improved it to add to the impact. Overall, a great image Tony so very near, thanks for your entry
