A species I would love to photograph someday - now if COVID could just hunker away so we can travel again!. Good overall, and quite sharp, but my main issue here is that the comp is rather tight.
I like the pose, details and perch. I could see a version with a little more room up top and in front of the bird. I remember seeing them on Merritt Island.
