    Glenn:

    What a big mouth! Are they loud?

    The high ISO is showing up as noise in the background, and there is a noticeable color cast (green)

    I don't know this bird, but have to think that it would look more natural with some of the cast removed.

    Cheers

    Definitevely this is a very uncommon bird! Nice BG and ''beards'' I also find the noise a bit distracting.

    That is a wacked out bird! Very cool and thanks for sharing. I agree with the noise comments and greenish tint.
