That's a really nice shot--especially for not being on anything man made!

Perfect lighting, pose, and environment. Can't ask for anything more than that. He even turned to look back at you! And at 2x, too. Good job, Peter.

Very nice shot of something I failed to get a decent picture of. If you were being picky the branch on the top right could be cloned out(if you are into that) but its a natural perch.
