These wild conyers go at the feeder with a vengence, making a big mess and driving me nuts. Nevertheless they are quite beautiful especially in the AM light on the angel trumpet tree.

Love the pose. Kooks like you did a great job on exposure and a real nice BG as well.

A very "psitacid" pose. Like the green mood of the scene and the red detail on the bird´s front. I am not sure if you applied shadow/highlight filter but it looks that you do it. If so I recommend to rework the image and to apply that filter but with lesser intensity because yo have no shadows here:)

Hi Susan,

Very cute and friendly pose. The BG is very nice. I see a green cast over your image but that's something you can fix in PS.

Keep them coming!

Playful pose and good sharpness. I agree with Maxis about the color cast. Thanks for posting.

No S/H applied. In this post I added blue. Since the whole photo is green I can't help the cast. maybe too much yellow. Is this improved? Thanks for your comments.

Still an overpowering BG in my opinion Susan. Here's a repost with the hue of the BG altered a little. I desaturated it a bit too. Then I brightened the bird.
