It's a stunning bird.

I like your new photo too, but not as much as the others. It's got cool details but isn't as dynamic. Still it's lovely!

The new telephotos generally have (I believe) image stabilization, which is a wonderful thing! My 16--300mm has that, and it has kept me from having any jiggle at all.

If it's anything like the Eastern State Penitentiary they will allow monopods but prohibit tripods. Adsos Letter Mar 2016 #9
I think the reason is, tripods tend to be a hazard in high traffic areas NV Whino Mar 2016 #10
