Bet it was a fun B&B to visit and with bonus colorful friends. The focus seems a bit soft, however, colorful, framed and a low sun angle for a pretty look.

Thanks again George, loved this B&B we could also watch the whales in the distance in the bay but not close enough to get any clear pics :)

Nice shot. What a beautiful bird. Never seen one like this before. Composition just right. Fore/background very good. Color striking. The focus seems a little fuzzy. Usually with nature shots sharp focus is the best. Thanks for this.

what a nice treat to be joined by such a colorful friend. He looks very patriotic with his red, white and blue. Color and contrast good. Framed well. His tail is very long. Thanks for sharing.

I like the composition and the beautiful colors of the photo. There is too much noise for me in the photo and there is a lack of sharpness when you look at the photo when blown up. I like the angle from which the photo is taken and the wood angel which let your eye to the subject. I like the different textures in this photo and the depth of field.
