Fantastic photo and even better caption :biggrin: Considering the quality of your photo now. It has so much natural smooth color and detail. Both thumbs up Edwin.

I love these "straddling" shots!
Beautiful bird, great position, and lovely perches.
Nice colours in both bird and BG - and perfect caption, too
Guess it didn't occur to him that moving down an inch would allow a more comfortable perch! LOL!

Wonderful pose. The colors and background are great. I could see a bit more cropped off the top, but that's very minor.
