My second after Larry's for this challenge. Your bird photography is consistently stunning, of course, but what really WOWed me the most with this is the color balance. It's incredibly tricky (at least for my butterfingers) to get reds and magentas to pop this vividly without them feeling oversaturated. And the compositional choices here are spot-on. This looks like glossy advertising through and through.
