Beautiful bird, Sandy, and so well captured.  Love the red against the green.  Would make a nice Christmas card.

A species we don't see posted very often. Very nice setting and composition.

Well done.

Great color management with the reds and greens Sandy.  Really nice DOF and composition too.

Very nice, I love the red and green color together. Great job capturing a clear view of it. The OOF leaves above the head are only slightly distracting. Not a major deal.

Terrific detail and color.  Good job in keeping the red from being oversaturated.  I like the setting and the perch.  There are just enough out of focus elements to make the image work really well.
