Sharp-Shinned Hawk (Accipiter striatus)

This is a composite of two separate images merged. It's a chance to see the anterior (ventral) and posterior (dorsal) views of the bird. The images are of the exact same bird taken in the same light so as to maintain the correct color gamut.

A superb job you've done with that image Mark. I can't help wondering what the conversation could be though LOL.
