You've taken such a nice angle of this bird. I like the way the light hits the feathers on his head and defines them so well with the profile. Perfect contest entry - and winner!

Crabby is one word for it. I have another term I will leave in my mind. The cock of his head and the hard staring eye is a strong statement. The only issue I see is the over exposed white feathers and beak. If the contest has not started yet, I might tweak is a bit. Good Luck in the contest.

Nice photo. He seems a little out of focus but other than that it is a beautiful photo. The color contrast between the white and black is very nice and he has that piercing eye. Very majestic!
