Beautiful bird, lovely colors, nice perch and background. I might have wished for a little more room at the bottom. Thank you for sharing, Stuart.

I like the pose, low light, perch and sharp eye. Looks like he was just eating some bananas. Nice image Stuart.
Strikingly beautiful image again.
Super good image, nice depth of field and i like the rain. It looks like you don't have more room avail so I'd just choose a mat of the same green when printing and framing this beauty.
Very nice Stuart, one of your best IMO, Thanks for sharing

Unfortunate that you had no room to work with below, but man, all else is wonderful. The rain adds so much here. Nicely done. Just a bit of posterization in the BG that I am sure is not there in the full size image.
Another beauty. You've cornered the marked on this species. Too bad about the bottom being tight, but no biggee. Good choice of aperture.
btw, I tried the suggestion posted recently by Karl: two rounds of Surface Blur at radius 2px, threshold 4; and then add noise at 0.4% Gaussian. It seemed to do a pretty good job on the posterization, at least on the image I tried.
