Very cute, look like he singing :D Nice job on getting the detail inside the beak. Maybe a little room on the left and more on the right.
Excellent pose !! Agree with suggestion and would take the one darker blade of grass out !!! Got a keeper !!!! ... for these guys is important to catch them doing something !!
Hi Don - well done - Agree with AL'S suggestions.
Like the one footed yawning pose.

Thanaboon, Al, Lance; big thks, this is my first attempt at clone - stamp. I do agree, and clearly see how this removes a distraction from the Image. Non one's eye isn't drawn away! Thks again!

Hi Don, You're cloning needs some practice I can see the effects of it in the repost, I posted the same pose as this one in the Avian forum and cloned out the same blade of grass I also warmed the image up a little more just a different interpretation of the same scene. Thanks again for putting me on this guy I owe you :)
