I like the soft light and colors. You could sharpen the bird more and maybe remove the OOF branch sticking out of the bird's back of the head.

Akos, Beautiful bird,wish I had them in my frontyard! Agree with Axel's suggestions. Really does have rainbow colors.

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Thanks Denise / Axel. I tried those suggestions. Not that good at patching up the branch though. :(

Great pp work on removing the branch Akos. Amazing colours in this, and how lucky you are to have these guys visit you in your garden. Well captured.
