Nice sighting of this colourful bird. The composition looks fine. A slight head turn towards you would have strengthen the composition further. Thanks for sharing.

Cute bird. Looks to be far off. Is it a regular perch for this bird? Try with a green cloth covering your head and see if the bird comes closer. Its a game of patience. The hardship that the artist undergoes remains with him. Thanks for sharing.
