It seems a bit soft, but I liked the colors, pose, and background well enough. Thanks for looking. Your comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Allen, I really love the colors and the pose too, with the soft background. It sure would have been an excellent capture if it had been a bit sharper. The shutter speed should have been high enough for 500 mm. Maybe you were like I am sometimes, so excited about the shot I am getting that I must give it a bit of a shake. Thanks for sharing, as I don't think I have seen this beautiful bird before.

Beautiful colors, Allen. Too bad about the softness.

Gorgeous color and BG Allen. I really like the branches framing the tanager too.

Well I'm with you Allen. I would be happy to just see one of these and capture it as you have. Yes it would be nice to be sharper but you were able to get a nice pose, good color, and a super background. Send them my way up north.
