Nice colors. I might consider cropping the left a bit to get the bird off center. It would also be nice to the beak seperated from the dark BG.

Thankyou for posting Nate and welcome to NSN.

I agree with Alan's crop suggestion. The shine of the bill gives some separation but a little more separation wouldn't hurt. These birds do very well with a vertical composition too. :D

Beautiful colors, I also wish for a slight left hand side crop.

Very nice colors. The beak blends into the BG a bit and this also would have worked well as a vertical but still nice indeed.
