Excellent shots. Love the portrait. Sharp with good bokeh. Congratulations. Always a good feeling to add a new bird to the photo collection. :-)


Best regards

Good question, this is the only hue that I've observed in the males.

Hi,
I love the first, "bottle feeder":confused:
Nice BG, Sharp my only nit is that the picture looks like it leans to the left, is the "bottle feeder" crooked?
All the Best,
Clare
