This is very nice. The light is perfect and you got all the detail in the face.

Sweet shot of a favorite bird. It pays to know the subject's habits!

Juanli, this is very nice. I might go a tad darker. Love the Bg and the mossy rock.

Lovely shot, Juanli. I'd tone down the highlights as Alan (sort of) mentioned.

The mossy rock is nice although a bit contrasty and a distraction to some extent ...
But I love this shot for its exposure, sharpness and color, Juanli! :roll:
One option is to take off 1/6 from bottom and trim slightly left and right to balance ... putting back the main focus on the subject itself so to speak. :mrgreen:

Well done; a very nice image with a perfect BG. Patience pays off, I remind myself regularly.
