Beautiful pigeon with white hood and beautiful little red eye captured nicely. Lighting, focus, colour and composition are beautiful.

The initial impact is good. My initial thought was that the bird was lying down, lol. It's a beautiful bird with a unique coloring. Focus is good and subject is cropped well.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Indeed, this is not your ordinary pigeon! I love the crowning glory spreading like a head dress for the Mardi Gras!
There's a unique flattened effect of this capture as if she's just a few centimeters from the wall.
An interesting initial impact.
Excellent lighting, focusing & framing.
Thanks for sharing.

Wow! What a headdress! It looks quite regal for just a pigeon. Very nice clarity and lighting. Love the pink feathers and the great detail. Well done!

Oh my goodness. Such a beautiful lady (I assume) with all the beautiful plumage. I think God has a sense of humor when he made some of His creatures, this probably being one.
She is indeed gorgeous, especially with that pink going down her front. She is perfect in every way. Such beauty.
