Great shot Terry! Like the low down POV you got of this Flicker. Also like the over the shoulder gaze and how you composed it.

Terry, very unique and interesting POV with the vegetation lapping below, great to see this beauty seemingly near eye level.  Love the way the perch curves one way, with the head angle facing the other way, back into the frame - very nicely presented - beautiful frame.
