    Fantastica!
    The warm colors on the back and foreground carry over the Extremadura landscape.
    Well done!

    Great light, pose and details. A little bit tight in the frame for my taste.

    Amazing behaviour, very crisp and I really like the overall earthy tones. The OOF green leaves in foreground are perhaps a little distracting.

    Pepe -

    This is absolutely gorgeous! Love the light, plumage detail, and display pose. The bg couldn't be more complimentary to the bird. You should be very proud of this one..
