nice image Frank,nice pose and perch,good BG,sharp,and nice light.

Beautiful pose,BG and very nice light.

Lovely bird and calling pose. Perch and BG work beautifully. I might consider a crop from the left to alleviate some of the dead space which I don't feel adds to the image.

Everything looks good here Frank on this basic BOAS and singing image. I like the ruffled throat feathers.

I like everything about this Frank. Great job.

I am a big fan on your blue throat images this 3rd once is also great, i love all about this i wont change a thing
The open beak and the feather standing on the throat makes this amazing image and go over the top

Beautiful singing pose and nice smooth background, Frank.

Beautiful studio shot, Frank - that smooth clear background really sets off the Bluethroat. Really do wish this was mine!

Just mirroring others praise of this great image Frank.just lovely in every aspect

Absolutely lovely as others have said! Maybe I'm the only one who wishes for just a bit more habitat in the shot.

Superb shot!!!
Excellent pose, terrific perch, wonderful background, and excellent details.
Very well done.

Lovely singing posture, details, and throat feathers. Very nice work, indeed.

Simple and very very sweet image of handsome bird. Love the pose with open beak,colors,details,perch and beautiful BG.
Composition is very nice.
