    Nice pose and colors. I would lighten the upper right corner and tone down the perch and the bird's back. I might also remove the extra catchlight.

    Looking forward to more!

    Nice pose, perch, detail and BG. You might try to tone down the bird a bit. Congratulations!

    Very nice pose and the weeds or meal on his bill a big plus. I love the perch, and would tone down the greens.

    I love the incredible sharpness and the dark green BKGR. I agree with Ramon about the bird's back being far too bright. I ran a 100% linear burn on the bird's back using Select Color and Refine Edge....

    Super pose colours and BG. The adjustment work that Artie did on the back looks better .
