The "Look"

Description: Even at four weeks of age, this Osprey chick is perfecting the Raptor “Look”. Here a ranger is holding the chick as he checks the condition of the nest and the health of the birds who are still relatively helpless.

Very cool image, Bill. You nailed the depth of field. I’m not sure, but it looks as if this bird is being held by someone? If that’s the case, it might fit better in the Human and Fauna forum. You should probably include a mention of the circumstances as well.

Thanks for the feedback Dennis. I took your advice and made some edits to tell more of the story.

Excellent edits, Bill. Thanks for the changes.

Cool – he looks like he’s ready to take on the world, or at least the underwater part of it.
