Fantastic shot of this guy. Great lighting and exposure to show his fantastic color, detail, and texture of his feathers.
Good focus and detail of his eye. Brilliant photograph.

Another very nice wildlife photo!! Very good feather detail. Did you shoot this through glass? It looks like a reflection near the beak. Great presentation.

No glass... just a blemish in the background... was a board of some sort I believe. Thanks so much!

Excellent

thanks so much click! When you look at them in the sunlight, their coat looks like a glossy black color because of all the color in them.
