That's a really different bird. Nice management of those blacks without blowing the reds. I wish the shadow wasn't across the middle third of the bird, but that's a pretty minor nit.

That warm light really brought out the red and you captured it very well, Ken. A very nice image.

Ken: very nice catch of a rarely seen bird. There's plenty of detail in the blacks as well as the reds. Congrats!!. Tichard
