A valiant effort Mr. Moose,

Thanks!

however the pixels did not cooperate.

I'm happy with the final, non-enlarged one.

(Wasn't that a scene  in Casino Royale?) AI GP was magic with another cropped 
eagle shot but no beach grass to confound the neural network and at lower ISO.

Be careful of blaming AI GP. The trouble you had started with the DxO Prime NR. AIGP and other later processing just built on those first artifacts. I have had files where DxO Prime NR did wonders, and others where ACR conversion and Neatimage did a better job.

If I use Topaz products on my older PC, it is quite the wait.  I haven't bitten 
on Denoise yet but perhaps I should.  Am still trying to suss out the best 
processing for various files.

Good luck with that. I don't think there is a general solution. With practice, I feel that I'm getting better at guessing which tool and settings will be best for individual files - but that's just training an organic neural net. :-)
