That's gorgeous.  Period.

But I couldn't help from playing a little.  ;o)  I used the Sharpening Tool to see if I could tease a bit more detail from the feathers.  And I darkened the background a bit.  The bright patches seemed to detract from your subject.  (As with most of my Workshops I didn't take the time to do a 'quality' job, just enough to show you my general ideas.  If you like you can do the hard work.)

Cloned out that bit of thorn in the bottom right.

Walt another awesome bird capture.  I like what Bob did to the background, in peticular the light blue spot.

I've seen a lot of colorful birds, but I don't think I've ever seen one with suuch a diversity of colors.

Beautiful.  I have little to say except that it makes me want to take up bird watching.
