HEE HEE - isn't it funny how birds and cattle hang out together? I saw one sitting on a bull's leg as he was lying in the field. Just cracked me up!!! Congrats on your 10th.

Is this one of those braham bulls? Love the tight crop of the horns, rich shades of brows. The bg lighting seems a bit off and the shadows in lower right slightly distracting. Good luck with this angus and trio of friends. -8-

8 - Good. Two for one. Criticism; not much, maybe slightly tighter crop, with the birds top right and the face more centered, may have made this even better, not sure.

This is an awesome capture. I would have like to have seen it cropped in and in focus more on the birds, the antlers, ear and eye of the bull to eliminate the distracting backround.
