I took this one yesterday morning. Overcast sky, and very low light.
The bird is quite soft, but I like the colors here, so here it is...
I blured the BG and sharpened as much as I could, small leaf removed on the perch.
CC appreciated.

Happy Holidays everyone!
Nice shot. You've captured the softness nicely. I like the simple composition. Down south I find these noisy, bossy guys are usually quite cooperative photo subjects.

Ilija, I like the colors also. The pose is nice as is the perch. Happy Holidays to you.
Lovely pose , soft feel and colors works very well here

Nice pose. The background looks very nice and matches well the color of the bird.
I would have preferred the head slightly more angled to the right though.
