Should I have saved this one for Halloween? This scary looking chick appears to have a very bad disposition with sharp fangs to go along with it! I look forward to your comments- thanks for looking. :)

I'm glad you didn't wait until Halloween. Great pose, light, setting and BG. The open bill and hairdo make it even better. Looks like a high-maintenance chick. :) Thanks for sharing!

Hi Shawn,
Great colors in this one and I like the "bowl" of greenery at the bottom. I like the open bill but the point of the top beak gets lost to my eye at this side. I imagine it looks better/more distinct at full size?
