Has great EXP which is a must for these beauties. Love the details, colors, BG and pose. Might try moving more into the lower left corner with perch moving in and out of the frame. Great the way it is though. TFS

I like the pose, I am not sure if I have seen one of these birds before. I think I would reduce contrast slightly, maybe reduce the highlights on the perch and lift the darkest areas on the breast.
