Just about enough separation between bird and background, but it's close (on my monitor)
Some nice detail in the neck area

Its a nice image, the inclusion of the white draws my eye slightly though.

The red mouth and the 'liquid' eye are super.I think if it was cropped to just above the white patch and some taken off the top,it would make it an even better image IMO.

Hi Jack,
I think its a good idea...agree that the white drags the eye a bit though. Maybe would like to see a landscape version without the white patch. For me I want to be looking at the details within the blacks and the red within the inside of the beak.
