Nice, John. You did a great job bringing out the colors in the plumage.

I especially like the colors on the folded wing. The placement of the bird in the frame and scene is perfect for my taste. I find the shadow of the branch a bit distracting, but one can't always choose where their bird is going to land. Beautiful. Ron
