    Just getting around to processing some more stuff from Ecuador this past January. I had never even seen this bird before this year so it was a real treat to get this guy :-)

    Wow, what a superb species - great image Glenn! I reckon a bit more room on the right if you have it,
    Cheers, Greg

    Magnificent image of beautiful looking bird. Love pose with open beak and his tongue.Beautiful colors and details.
    Tree is coming infront of face and attracting the attention.
    Assuming that you are not against cloning. I have modified the image. I hope you will like it.

    Regards,
    Satish.

    Excellent image, Glenn. Cloning is nicely done Satish, but it might render the image to be too much out of its environment IMO.

    Very nice shot.
    I really like the calling pose, excellent details, and well composed.
    Well done.

    Hey Glenn. Such nice work to get a good shot of a bird like this, Nice exposure and detail, and a really good look from him. I do find the side of the tree too imposing , but anyway you process it, its a winner.

    Stunning detail captured...especially the obvious tongue, exposure looks good a swell. I like the inclusion of some habitat, but I think it needs more room to the right. The repost by Satish I think has taken a little too much away from the natural environment, bur somewhere between his and the original would be nice.

    Superb capture ,Glenn.I love the different colours as well as the tongue.I also prefer to retain the environment. Perhaps some cleaning up at the bottom.
