    Kurt beautiful and love the bird calling. I love these guys had some opportunities before Covid in south Texas. My biggest problem is the perch is so large and it centered. could move some to the left then the tail gets tight. Nice and sharp details look good.
    Love the foliage and the greens with the background TFS.

    We were so excited to see these haha, and they are so common there. But man, do they pack a punch of colors...

    Really love this pose. The perches were nothing short of exceptional and I like this one a lot.

    Sweet pose and good choice of composition. Rich in texture and colors, nicely done!

    Love the calling pose and the raised eyebrows. I move the perch out of the center with a small crop from our left and from above and removed the single bare stem/stick below the bird's tail. That should have been done when creating the set-up. Please indicate image that were made a feeder and other set-ups.

    thanks with love, artie

    Oh, this is stunning. Great calling pose from the bird and colours are amazing. Super background, I quite like the perch too, and especially the vegetation in the foreground.

    Great timing and well processed, wonderful work, Kurt - such a pleasure to view.

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea
