Very pretty composition and lighting as well as great catchlight in the eye. Lovely color and detail too but would have preferred not so steep a capture. If it had been possible to move back a little this would help. Thanks for sharing Renate

I like the setting and 'stomping' pose. I agree with Judy regarding the angle. The BG looks a bit noisy but that is easy to fix.

Great composition and colors. Well done.

Besides suggestions would crop a little tighter to have the bird out of the middle of frame I like the colors and pose !!!
