A classic pose (height of action with excellent head angle) for this beauty!!!! Love the light, BG, even the grass as part of environment and of course the perch!!!!! Even like the highlight in BG and of course, the colors!!!! Congrats!!!!

[Leroy Laverman]

Very nice image. The circle behind the bird is a (very) slight distraction but I like it regardless. Nice light, nice background.

Hello Marko,

Excellent timing. I would remove the leaf in from of the bird, I also find the white "dots" in the BG somewhat distracting which makes them look like huge dust spots. With that said, I think you did well with the exposure.

[Jody Melanson]

I agree with Maxis' and Leroy's comments.

[Philip Lombard]

I also agree with Maxis comments. but a real nice shot.
