Beautiful setting, BG, light and singing pose. The plumage looks a tad oversharpened on my monitor and I'm not sure about the leaf in the upper right.
Nice colors and nice details,agree with Axel for the leaf in the upper right,I would prefer to clone it
Axel's points are right on target. I would consider cloning out the disembodied leaves on the left side as well. If you have it a little more room on the bottom to keep the tip of the bottom most from being clipped would be good as well.
I love the pose, background and foliage along with this bird. Well done.
Axel is right on. A beautiful image you have here, Glenn!
You have another winner here, Glenn. I have mixed feelings about the leaves in the upper corners and my opinion has gone back and forth on this. I think, because the URC leaves are shaded and clipped, it would be better to remove them. I agree with LeRoy that a little more room on the bottom to fit in the full leaf would be good, if you have it..
Nice composition Glenn,
I like the natural perch, I must agree with the over sharpening on the bird, also the yellows on the head are poping saturated, you might want to tone it down just a tad...:cool:
Fantastic lighting sets the mood for this beauty, everything from compo to exposure is spot on! Agree you could go a point less sharpening.
The leaf in the right gives balance to my tastes.
A wonderful image in all aspects! the BG is also very good.
looks great to me - love the overall feel to this image - great work.

Fantastic image Glenn. love the eye contact, the head turn, perch, BG... really love this one.
Simply beautiful Glenn !! Love the singing pose and the very striking composition.. Agree with the above..
Another gorgeous image Glenn. You are doing an impressive job there :o
Keep them coming :)

Stunning shot !
excellent image. agree with others on bringing down the sharpness.
but i like the leaves on the top-right-corner & might prefer to leave it as it is.
