Wow that is scarlet! The color is so strong it is difficult to pick out feather detail but it seems to be there. Pity the brighter BG overpowers the bird a bit.

This shot shows how hard it is for sensors to deal with red especially at ISO 2500. A record shot.

Yep it's a red bird.

Have to agree with Tim here. You could try toning down the background. Still a pretty looking bird.
