Dove in the shadows

This mourning dove was flitting around a tree near our house. It finally sat still for a minute to allow me to photograph it.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

The dove is definitely engaged with strong eye contact. You've picked it out of the shadows very well.
