    Love the wet look. The hints of green grass in the bg are a plus IMO. Could be a candidate for the Theme.

    Hi John, I agree with Bill, I like the wet look. The bird and perch work well against the white background. The blades of grass add color. Nice image, thank you for sharing.

    I like the wet look too, and it parted the feathers just enough for us to see a peak of the red streak on the head. Good perch, and the oof green grass blades are a neat touch. If mine I'd use the sponge tool to desaturate the green cast under the belly. You don't need much, brushing small circles at maybe around 8-10% flow (if using PS).
