Hope this is of more conventional taste... ;D
Image is still small since they were faaaaar away... :P
Got some close encounters, but not quick enough to get a good shot. :-[

Thanks for showing us your second attempts, Angus!

The bird itself is soft and rather small in frame. It seems to have overpowered by the large dry perch around. So another thumbdown from me! Sorry, I hope you can take my harsh critique here ... ;D

Come on you know I like conventional shots! ;)

Thanks for the frank remarks! ;) Thats how we learn! ;D
The things I like about this image are the blue even BG and the very similar colors of the bird and the plant; making this a two color image. But like you mentioned, other aspects has lots to be desired. :-[ Need to try harder next time. ::)
