I like the placement of this gentlemen in the frame, his yellow beak really stands out from the black plumage.
Well focused, the image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural.
Well composed allowing a good sense of his location. Well presented !

Getting his lady behind the bushes huh? That ain't new! Guys been trying that for centuries! Lol. Nice capture..the clarity is great. The capture of the light is great. The angle of the shot of this bird in the bushes is great. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall.
