Here is an image taken in Costa Rica. I removed some OOF moss in front of the bird and some moss strands that touched the underside feathers. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

I might consider trying to tone down the oof perch near the RLC. It does tend to draw my eye because of its location and brightness. My first thought would be to burn it in slightly.
Nice sharpness with that shutter speed.

Jim, I couldn't see a difference in the two posts? Anyway I love the great colors and feather detail as well as the great sharp face and eye. It would have been nice to have more dof in the front part of the perch but I still like the image as is.
Sure makes me want to go to Costa Rica. A beautiful bird. Nice detail and background. Nice job.
great colors and nice BG. well done. perch is not the best but everything else is

What a beautiful bird. I like the feather detail. What great beak! Great BG. Perch ok.
A keeper for sure!

nice colors,good detail,like the BG,thanks.
IQ and details are insane. I love the colors in the blue feathers. Image is so good that perch doesn't even phase me!
Those blueish colours are absolutely stunning! Love the detail and great background to add to it. Ditto that the perch could have been better, but it doesn't really bother me a lot.
Superbly captured!
Color great can live with the perch
Strikingly beautiful bird, superb IQ, bg and sharpness. Gotta make it to CR someday. TFS.
Striking colours Jim, and good job on the blacks of the head. Pose looks good, and Im OK with the perch with regards to the size. I do agree about toning down the end part though.
Thanks to everyone for the comments. The female landed on the same perch right after the male left. I don't like the perch as well but thats where they landed so I took what I could get.
Jim, what a bird and your capture does full justice. Eye-level shooting angle makes such a big difference. Stunning details. I dont mind the perch as nothing is obstructing the view. Well done.
