I'm just glad that piece of wood is not my arm.

I pretty much agree with what has already been said, especially the tail part.

I have run into this situation before as well, too close for too much lens
[sarcastically].... how so very unfortunate that situation is ;-)

it's better than any raptor shot i own. i assume you were set up for a smaller target when this guy showed up?

He feels scrunched. I don't mind the clipped wings as much as the clipped tail. Nice pose and sharp, but flat?

THe clipped wings bother me ever so slightly, but otherwise I like it! Nice osprey.
