Hi everyone, I just returned back from leading tours in Ecuador so I have been out of the loop for a while but I have been going online occasionally and enjoying everyone's images.  This is a bird that I photographed near to one of the lodges on our Pantanal, Brazil trip.

Nice bird and a well composed image, Nate.  If you want to take the time, you might get rid of the twig ends sticking into the bottom of the frame.

I really like the background on  this one. The twig at the bottom doesn't really bother me. Techs look really good. Well done.

Very nice, clean look at this bird Nate. Love to see the variety of birds from all over the world on this site. This also has a very nice BG with the greens and the colorful flowers. Well done as usual.

Very nice composition and pose.   Nice level of detail especially in the head.
