Very nice shot of another secretive critter Danny. In the repost, I once again used Noiseware Pro on the bg noise which wasn't bad but I thought was a little distracting. I really like the head angle on this guy/girl!
This is a beautiful little bird with nice detail and I like the inquisitive look. The added noise reduction is an enhancement and I'm wishing those two dead leaves were not in the picture.
They sure can be secretive, but they almost have to be with that bright yellow breast and beautiful song. I wish the OOF leaf in front of the tail feathers wasn't there.
