Great portrait however I’m not a Fan of the vignette it’s just a bit to prominent for me , I think it would benefit the image if it were a lot softer ,, Still a great shot though 👍👍

Thank you guys for such nice comments. Spike became reasonably regular at my feeding area, but then just disappeared. I m hoping he may just have found an easier feeding place, he was a beautiful bird and afforded some unusually close views for a Sparrowhawk.
 
Excellent photo! I love the sharpness and detail. I do not use vignette a lot but it really works on some photos, an excellent use of it in this portrait!!
