Hi Nelson, great shot of this beautiful bird in a lovely setting. The eye looks a LITTLE soft, but when I checked your flickr it doesn't seem so. Maybe you can still do some selective sharpening to make this a non-issue. Excellent composition as well.

Nicely composed with the mossy perch and smooth clean backdrop, gorgeous color...and I also feel another round of selective sharpen particularly on the head/eye would make this even nicer
