Hallo Chris
A very beautiful capture of this Crested Caracara. It seems to be a proud bird and it bears a resemblance to an aristocrat. Looking at it makes me think of the secretary bird, which I think is a very noble bird. This one of yours has a "snobbish" expression on its face and I think it will look quite cute with a pair of glasses. Like a real schoolmaster. I like the black patch of feathers on its head. Looks as if it is wearing a cap. All jokes aside. - The image is well composed with very good detail, exposure and sharpness. The markings on its chest are clearly visible and blend in well with the rest of the black plumage. The greenery as background highlights the colour and detail of the bird to a great extent. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna

Hola Chris.
Hermosa foto de este "Caracara" Fina pose y agradables los colores obtenidos en la foto. La nota escrita de alto valor.
He visto algunas de ellas por aqui, sobretodo antes de las siembras van detras de los arados en busca de ratones y viviras que han sido descuartizadas por los discos.
Saludos Chris.

Hello Chris,
What a sight! This bird is so beautiful and you've captured it in a beautiful pose and in wonderful light. Great focus and very sharp details too. Beautiful sunlight on the grass and a fine dark sky to make it stand out. Brilliant work!
Many thanks and best wishes, Ulla

Presumably it is the gentle evening light which has given a golden tinge to the picture, Chris.
Caracara is a fine looking Falconide and you have shot it from a very good point of view which gives a fine impression of this elegant creature.
Thanks and regards.
