Beautiful work Greg. Good framing and colours.

Birds are usually better photographed from their eye level, but this one works. Good colour combination.

Thanks Alan, my intention was to try and get above the bird to have a shot to include in your 'Looking down' Challenge. I took this as I moved into position, but as Murphy's Law predicts, the bird took flight and those clicks weren't good enough to show!

Very effective processing, colors, background and composition. Alan (again) has a good point too, but your shot still works.

Maybe the bird could be highlighted a bit more. ie, a bit lighter? Just around the bird I mean.
