    I know I'd certainly love to have this image in my files, looks like a large crop. I like the birds position in the frame. Color in the birds combs is very nice......well done

    Lovely subject in awesome habitat. I do like your composition here. Your critical focus appears to be on the bird's body rather than the head, and I would like to see its head sharper. Did you use your center point on the bird's head in this image, and then recompose to make sure the head was sharp?

    Marina here is the focal point, I tend to select the points as the subject moves or when I get time depending upon how active the subject is

    No problem Marina you made a good point and I agree the head does not appear to be as sharp as the tail feathers.
