Hi - What a cool bird - Never seen one of the guys before - thanks for sharing.
Lots to like here - Good HA and eye contact - Exposure looks good and BG compliments the bird well.
Think I would crop some from the top to move the bird from the centre - the OOF background along the bottom does not bother me - though some might prefer it cropped out.

Looking forward to seeing more :)

Hi Fernando

Good looking bird and got to love that tail !!!

I like the way you framed it with plenty of space, looks just elegant !!! Could take a little off the top but its just personal taste.

Exposure looks very close, not sure if you could have opened a third more for detail on the tail, could have blown the whites. Another round of sharpening would be nice but don't mind it as presented for its overall feel !!! I like it a lot !!!

Very cool bird, like the tail. Nice BG. Might clone the lone stick under the tail.

Thanks for sharing this interesting bird; I like the oof foliage on the bottom as it adds interest and a sense of place.

Hello, thank you for the commentaries. The photo is a complete picture, and practically without retouch only levels and sharpen. Your commentaries are welcome, to re-fit and to improve the photo.
Thanks
