Like the background color and good job in getting details in the dark and light colors

Very nice shot. I never see them in these bright colors. They are always pretty drab looking down in Texas in the winter.

Great pose you captured of this little beauty Sandy! The perch is very attractive, I like how seed heads frame the bird.

Sweet One!
