Really nice catch Sandy! That perch really goes with the vulture. Love the glossy brown eye to go with the brown plumage. Nice tones and sharpness. If I was to nit pick, I could see taking out the black blob behind the bird but that’s not a big deal.

Hi Sandy
You did a great job at framing this Vulture, it looks like it’s having a bad day. The overall impact of the Vulture’s size and eye contact is very cool.

Cool title, Sandy and you caught this one on a superb perch for a vulture. A very nice looking bird for the vulture clan.

Sandy: very good pose and perch. When perched, vultures always seem to take on an ominous look and this one is no slouch. You might consider a slight vignette.

Excellent look at the vulture on an interesting perch and pleasing background.
