Another beauty, Ken. This one has better light. Well done.

Wonderful! All you need is a bee in its beak.

Great pose that really fits with the perch, Ken.

Gorgeous bird in a great pose. Interesting perch and clean BG.
A bit centered - you could clone in more canvas on the right if you chose to.
Sweet image!
