Hello Sky,
This is an excellent portrait of a Tropical Kingbird. The pose, colours, POV and lighting are great and its nice to see the broad base of the bill that is typical for these flycatchers. Nice catchlight in the eye too!
Thanks for sharing this beauty,
Ivan

Hi Sky.
Amazing bird, its pose and brilliant composition of the charming image. I also like wonderful colours and lights, impressive blurriness of the BG. Some softness of the bird image is not a points. I think it is effect of long lens end. My best wishes and compliments.

The lighting here is perfect and there are no annoying shadows present.
Great colours and exposure.
Nice BG as well.
Superb catch-light in the eye.
Well done Sky!

Hallo Sky
What a beautiful little bird. It looks like a baby to me, but I can be wrong. The reason why I say that is that the plumage on the head looks so fine and soft like baby fluff and the eye is so small and minute. This is a marvellous shot with wonderful bright and sunny colours displayed in the plumage. The pose is great showing off its face and that lovely sharp edged beak. I enjoyed looking at this one. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your day.
Kind regards

Hello Sky,
He is quite similar to our Western Kingbird although he is much more brightly colored. A fine image well captured Sky, thanks.

der ist ja hübsch! :-) gut erwischt, schöne pose und ein klasse mix aus gelb und grau mit einem tollen hellblauen hintergrund.
musstest du den ausschnitt stark vergrößern? da ist ein leichtes rauschen in den dunkleren bereichen, das aber nicht weiter stört.
well done & viele grüße aus köln, thor.
