Shot at 320mm, lucky I was a way back, seemed as though this little 'pretty' could have swiped my lens hood! Hahahah these guys are ugly close up! C & C's appreciated, thanks.

Yes Kevin, they are ugly and dangerous, but your shut stopped me to post mine, maybe I'll change my mind. Your shut is very successful and like it very much. Sexy lips also. Good sharpness, good framing and colors. Good work. Talal

wonderful shot Kevin, perfect DOF and lovely sharpness. There seems to be something about head on shots of birds that makes one smile :). The dark right corner is a slight distraction but can't be helped. The square crop was a good choice.
