Hi John,
This is so much better! The BG is lovely and there is less OOF tree than the last image.
Lovely light and IQ with a great look at the feet, the tail and the tuft of feathers around the base of the bill. Well done!
I could see about 1 point of black to the blacks in selective coloring and if I was really picky I would clone in a bit of that green BG along the bottom of the frame but still fine as is,
Gail

I agree with Gail, I like this one better than your last. Lovely woodpecker, nicely shown. Thank you for sharing, John.
