Sid:
The title made me laugh. I am sure he is just scratching, but it sure looks like he is talking on the phone.
Nice exposure, sharp,good DOF.
The 'flowers' are an interesting compositional element. I might try a version with the left one removed,
Good to see you posting Sid.
Cheers

Very Funny Caption and fitting, Sid. Nice image, good detail in the whites and the browns. Good to see you again.
superb pose and sharp image..nice to see you back..
Funny caption, great image. I'm digging the angle of view and the perch. I'm ambivalent about the flower stalks at the right.
Sweet image Sid, love the pose and the whites look about perfect.

my goodness this is one hack of an image. clarity is amazing here. i feel a bit tight frame though.
sure is cute great image
I had a big LOL on the title too. Great close look at this majestic creature. Your overall comp is great especially including the flowers and I like the mossy stuff on the perch too. My only suggestion would be to loosen it up just a little on the sides. I love a close intimate look so really just a teeny bit.
sell this one to Verizon, Sid :-)
loved the IQ....lots of details. Agree with loosening the crop. would have been better without the flowers IMO....when you get a pose, you dont always get everything else as you want.
Sweet with a great title. SH with a good EXP and a good angle to the phone. And sun no less.
