Impressive...
Picture really impressive!
To Canon 20D (in good hands) makes marvels.
The interesting, however, it is that a lens 300mm was used, what suggests that the photographer was not close...
But the picture is as if it had been done with microscope.
Fabulous. Really fabulous... It is now "mine"... My favorite one.
Congratulations, photographer!

At this very minute there's about 20 of them sheltering in my trees out of the rain. They mostly come around in bad weather for an extra feed. Very good close-up, clarity & details=^..^= #4765038

Steven, this image is wonderful!!! Great color, contrast, and clarity.
The 'keet's gentle expression and eye contact with the camera take this image to the next level; an endearing connection with the audience!
Great job, Steven!
