    Love the high-key look and the fresh vegetation adds a great splash of color. My only wish is for the head to be square to the camera.

    Good light on the subject, nice perch but maybe a bit much of it, and yes to a better head turn but maybe you could dodge a bit of life out of the eye.

    DATPCA. A superb job with the exposure and the high key presentation and the head angle is not bad. But square to the sensor would have put this one over the top. Love the feather in the bill as well.
