One of my favorite European Birds. Pic nicely balanced with excellent colouration. My only issue are highlights from the leaf reflections I think they need to be toned down a tad. The rose hip in the bottom left hand corner is somewhat of a distraction, but I still really like this image.

A beautiful bird, nicely shown. A bird I have never seen before, thank you for sharing.

Pretty neat image. Is the bird wet? I like the setting, but I agree the highlights seeping through the leaves are unfortunate...some low opacity clone work would help with that. I also see some noise on the subject, not sure IO 1600 was needed judging by the SS...but the 5D3 should handle noise better than that - unless it's a big crop?
