    You most certainly did have a cooperative bird to get this close. Around here you don't get within a mile of them. An excellent portrait........good BG, detail, color, exposure and composition. Well done.

    Lana this is, of course, a captive bird. The wild ones here in Spain are not very cooperative :)

    Very beautiful, Juan! Outstanding detail in your subject. I like the background as well. The angle doesn't bother me... very well done.
