    Now that's an aptly named beauty... Love the composition, handled well when dealing with that tail. Looks sharp and well exposed. The BG is sweet but would have been better opened up a little more. I love it as is though... TFS

    A well captured image Moe--vibrant green BG nicely OOf ( further my comment re: greens in an earlier thread, this kind of blurred bokeh green isn't "yucky" ) with good head position and a dandy perch . And the touch of blue on the wing is the pie'ce de resistance

    What a great bird! Not many options to compose with that long tail, but you did well. BG is OK, but the bright part directly behind the subject catches my eye. I've seen nicer perches, but it is what it is and works well enough in this case.

    Great bird... Cropping and comp is a trick with that tail, but I like the comp and the perch.

    What a neat looking bird and what a tail. The pose and background are very nice. Maybe a touch more on the right.
