wonderful color..... the background is great......focus is good..... I would have liked to see a bit of a sparkle in his/her eye but really a very good photo
What a wonderfully different view. The post processing looks interesting, too - is that something like a radial blur? I'll have to check your notes after the rollover.
There are a lot of bird photos in this challenge, anyway this one is great! The colours of the background contrast with the bird: that makes it an eye-catcher. The bird is looking up and that makes it so cute, haha.
