Nice close shot of this bird, good head angle and sharpness. Maybe tone down the background, I would crop the leaves off the bottom

Beautiful image, I like every bit of it.

Wow, John, there's no substitute for getting close enough, is there? Great image. I like the leaves at the bottom.

Wonderful John! I've never gotten a shot with the exposed crown, this is the closest I've ever seen. I wouldn't change anything about the processing here.
