Nice pose on top of a nice perch by a nice subject! Excellent details on the bird, esp the blacks, better seen in the larger version. Really nice shot! Sharon

Very good job in this low light using the high ISO, nice detail retention in the blacks Rob.
Little bird that's big on beauty.. And things are looking up:wink:

Great pose and I love the perch and the background, really sets the bird off well.

Very nice. I like the overall darkness of this. Nice detail as is your standard.
