I just used a hue and saturation adjustment to change the silhouette bg to pink. The original had been converted to a duo toned image originally in LR. (I know the HA isn't ideal:S3:) I also used Topaz Simplify.
Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated

This is very effective Cheryl. I’d hate to think what would be happening in nature to create a background like that.

I love the pink and like the image despite the cluttered tree....

Cheryl, Very cool effect! I love the pink BG and the tree frames the bird nicely.

I like the pink background and I think the HA is fine for a silhouette.

Nice image and application, Cheryl.
I might have removed the branches along the left border, if it were mine, but it works as is. Nature put them there afterall! :w3

I really like this silhouette, Cheryl. Perfect color and a neat variety of shades of pink.

I like the pink and the silhouette. The unusual color of the sky catches my attention! Nicely composed.

Cheryl, this is really, really nice...stunning image. It might look very nice cropped a bit from the top as well...to just below the first top branch, creating almost a pano of the image...and maybe cloning out a stray branch here or there...but that's just another approach to a beautiful capture. Nicely done!
