Blimey that's an evil looking birdie, those talons mean business. A well captured mean look Rassie.

I practiced traditional martial arts, karate and kendo, for many years. If I could have perfected that stare I would have never lost a bout.
What a great shot of that bird.

The bird did not like my stare back, so it selected discretion as the better part and took off.
