Very sweet image , like the multicolor BG, the pose and the beautiful perch. The insect in the beak is a bonus. Well done.

Hi Chris, love the overall setting in this. Super pose from the chat, sharp, and his catch a bonus. I like how you have placed the chat high in the frame, and that BG is so sweeeeet.

[Alan Murphy]

That is one sweet image. Love the soft colors and soft light.

Very nice , Christopher, the placement of the bird is nice and the perch is killer.

Beautiful image, very appealing. The only suggestion I can offer is to have a bit more canvas below (if you have it) to give room for the larger flower currently touching the edge. All else is perfect :-)

Agree with the others Chris, very nice! Love the food item, perch and BG. Great work!

What a thoroughly beautiful image, Chris. Just love the soft light, the bg, perch and the bird. The food is icing on top.
I'm with Daniel on adding just a bit below, but wow, what an image!
