Great timing, crab add a lot. Nice angle of bird, size of perch.
To my eye, there is a light green cast on bird from foliage, might be interesting to try and neutralize it a bit.
I tried a version in photoshop with curves layer, set white point on the white shoulder flash, and that seemed to do the job nicely. Fairly subtle change, but might be worth a look.
Lovely little bird.
Cheers

Amazing colours on the KF, and the crab catch is a nice bonus. We obviously dont get these guys over here, but would love to see one.
wow , I have wonderful memories of this bird
excellent image and advise above

Way cool scene!! I love the crab. Image seems a bit soft, some sharpening to get the fine detail for web presentation would be advised. Tough to get it perfectly sharp with 1/8s.!! Randy's suggestion for colour cast is valid and worth exploring...
Holy cow, your bird has a bad case of crabs!
In all seriousness, cool species and the crab in the beak is nice. I agree it is a bit soft.
Pretty sharp for a 1/8 shot !! Agree about the colour cast .

Very nice perch, BG and great colors, food is a big plus but lack of sharpness is hurting this image.
