Really enjoying this series of yours, Stuart. Great light. Rare that leaves covering part of the bird works, but it's perfect here. Kind of gives him a "tucked in" feeling.

You have lovely light.
Good IQ,
Do you have a bit more room on the left? It feels a bit tight to me for the virtual tail and body.

Excewllent portrait shot, framed by leaves. The light is as good as it gets.

Lovely environmental image, Stuart. Love how his colors just pop against that green in this gorgeous light and how he is hidden in his habitat! Depending on the original, you could probably work up a few different crop scenarios.!

sweet light and details I wish the feet were not blocked by the leaf
