Malachite Sunbird sitting on a rusty fence! I liked the contrast between his jewel feather coloring and the rusty fence

That is one lovely bird. You have captured him beautifully. Love the dof and I agree with you about fence which not only contrasts in colour with the brilliant green feathers but also adds a very different 'feel'.
