    I love it, sharp, night light in the eye and no distractions in the background. A definite keeper!

    Beautiful image. I love the perch, good HA & BG. Cardinals are the birds that I miss most from living in the midwest. There are none in MT.

    Good sharpness, perch, and BG. Like the raised crest feathers. Although the profile view is good, a slight head turn towards you would have improved the image IMO.

    Nice bird, exposure, and BG. Would prefer a different perch perhaps with a bit of greenery.

    Lovely image of a beautiful bird. I must agree, the perch is so special.
