    Scott:

    I think the female hoodies are quite attractive in a more subtle way than their show boat mates.
    She is sharp and well exposed, like the environment and colors.

    I might take a look at toning down the reads above her just a little.

    Cheers

    Randy

    I like the colours Scott, and good low angle too. Maybe a little tight behind the tail.

    Nice to see the female of this species Scott. Lovely light exposure and eye contact. I like Randy's suggestion of toning down the reeds a little.
