Simply Gorgeous - You have a good pose and head angle along with sharp details throughout. Yellows look just right on my screen/ Might crop a little off the top and sharpen the eye just a tad.

I assume the BG is part of your setup?

Well done - keep them coming :)

Thank you.
The background is a wall fence. I hope that in the future it will be covered with ivy and the trees and shrubs will grow. At this moment finding a good background in my small garden is not easy. And the lens is not for bird photography, but for now is the only one I have.

I like the composition, image and capture...you have sharp details with very good color rendition. agree on the selective sharpening of the eye...looking forward to your next capture...:cool:

I like the bg as presented Does make the bird stand out well !!! Lovely image and you did get close !!

Not sure if its practical/possible but fill flash would be helpful !!! Do like it a lot !!!

Lovely! Love the bokeh and the lighting. HA is excellent. Sure do wish these birds were around here, they are beautiful.

Lovely colours and pose, good luck with your home made blind. I am sure you will have lots more opportunities.
