    Love the perch, BG and action. Head could be turned a bit more to you...perhaps fix the nicked wing tip? You could probably get away with a tighter crop as well, but these are minor points on a great image.

    Gorgeous image, Vivaldo. Fantastic exposure, details, bg and action. A more dainty perch would have been great, but absolutely love this image.

    I like the sence of movement and this bird seems to have some character about it.

    Interesting to see this species - a new one for me.

    Nice action captured Vivaldo, and sharp as mentioned with good detail and colours.

    Vivaldo, hi, excellent work here. Whites getting a little hot but the details are all there. Pleasingly simple green BG. Perch a little thick, but what can you do? Inspired by this shot, I'm going to use my 1.4x teleconverter next time I'm out shooting passerines in flight.
