    Another bird from Aruba. These guys were all over the place. They like sweet nectar type foods, so keep an eye on your fruit!

    Jody love the composition and the open bill. I would love to see this one with a little bit more contrast and you have some strange halos (?) around the sticks on the BG.

    Great picture of one of my favorite birds, which it is also very common on Puerto Rico.
    Nice accurate colors and great pose, open bill a bonus.

    Juan makes some excellent points Jody. Composition is good, but BG has a strange look to it (too much Gaussian blur?). Could stand a contrast boost. I might remove the branches behind the bird.
