Lovely image of a very interesting bird. Thank you for sharing, Bill.

Lovely pose, perfect head turn and a hint of interest in the BG.
A nice light has allowed you to show of the tones all over the bird - excellent work Bill
Never seen this one before Bill, great detail and sharpness ,beautiful little bird.

Fabulous the pose colours and lighting, wow I would be super pleased if this was mine!
Nice light indeed for this stunning species.
Good work Bill. I like it. Great HA and details. BG a bit too smooth though perhaps? Did you run NR? But it's not a biggie, so I wouldn't sweat too much over that.
Thanks everyone. Light was often not friendly on this trip: too mottled or dark under the canopy, harsh in the tropical sun. But it cooperated on this one. Yes, Akos, I almost always run NR on the BG, as I did here.
