    Loverly bird, pose, EXP; great sharpness. Desaturating the yellow eye would make the image look more natural.

    I did not know that this species was in your country; does anyone know if this is the same species that we see in South TX?

    I agree with Artie here on the eye, and also might try toning down or removing some of the stuff in the BG.
