This was taken in early morning light in Costa Rica. The Guanacaste region was at the end of the dry season so a lot of trees had no leaves allowing for some good opportunities. Removed twigs in the BG. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

I envy your trip, Jim.
Cool bird and nice colors.
How do they fly with that tail?
Magnificent image with lovely colors.Very nice placement of bird,nice lights and composition.

Hi Jim, I remember a previous post of yours showing the back - here we have a front view with interesting detail on the chin. Just love that tail, not to mention the pastel coloured BG.
Nice bird you have , you got the front and the back both nicely done for the bird, which is good
All look really nice
i may have a preference for a little bit more canvas on the right , however this is nice as presented
Another nice one Jim with a well balanced composition, I'd just be tempted to boost the WB and/or the saturation.
Excellent shot with very nice soft background.
Lovely portrait Jim, superb looking bird, well done.

I like the soft, muted colors in this. I would probably like it if the colors were saturated a bit more, fine image. I would love to go to CR one day.
what a tail! love everything
I might darken the BG just a tad and boost saturation slightly
