Another bug in the lightbox. I think this is Chortophaga viridifasciata. I decided to try for a light reflection so I put a sheet of clear acrylic on top of the white foam board.
Cropped, curves, contrast, cloned out some minor blemishes on the 'hopper, blurred the shadow and reflection, smart and high-pass sharpening.

You captured a nice pose, I like the comp, and the lighting is well handled. The reflection adds a little different look to the image. I'm wondering if you can squeeze a little more sharpness out of the thorax - it doesn't appear as crisp as the hind leg. Overall, this is very well done!
