A six for the beautiful blue my friend. Gorgeous shot of this uniquely beautiful bird. One of my favorite colors that really pops out of the picture with the neutral background. You must be having a wonderful time.
Magnificent.

A superb shot. Sorry I am out of sixes because this one really is striking. I like the twigs and branches and the way you found an opening in which to frame him. A beautiful bird, shown in fine detail, and an outstanding setting.

Fred,
This one deserves a CYBER SIX it's plumage is so beautiful it's Peacock blue iridescence glowing in the light while it's golden eye watches you closely. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from El-mundo
Not quite as much of a threat as the picture with the Elephant - A lovely snap of this dainty starling with some of the most wonderful feathers and down I have ever seen on a bird, the blue looks like woven silk, almost iridescent and reflective on it's slick and streamlined body. Fantastic clarity and lighting accentuate the features greatly; the short DOF means the interesting backdrop of the branches and trees make for brilliant contrast to this beautiful bird - great work and well done again :)

What a beautiful bird you have captured here Fred. The iridescent colors are magnificent and that eye is very 'eye catching'. Nice placement in the scene. Well done Fred ~ Steve
