Nice! I didn't see the original, but I like this one. I've yet to
photograph one of these redtails with food. Whenever I see them they
just seem to be hanging around, chillin.
But back to your shot: great pose, and whatever you cropped out, good
riddance! :-)

I had a red tail sighting on my street recently but didn't even get one
