Very nice shot. Nice and clear on the bird with a non distracting background. Great shot.
Now where did you take this picture? This isn't a native to the Americas. It took a very creative search on Google to find out that this bird is a Bearded Barbet. I see a band on his leg. Is he in captivity? If not he must have escaped. Maybe from a pet shop or a breeder.
Thanks for the mystery, it was fun.

Is a great image indeed. One of the better clarity in feather details that I have seen. He looks hungry, I bet he likes cherrys' to eat?! Wonderful capture Sean:)
E~
Very well done. Faved
