Very cute pose, Ken! Lovely colors with no distractions in the frame.

Cheers,

Ken, I really like this one, but it is a bit dark. I took the liberty of opening your file in LightZone and using the "relight" feature. Really nice capture.

A bit more subdued than the adult, but some beautiful coloration, Ken.  Superb detail and I really like the pose and perch.  Well done.
