You know, I thought I'd commented on this during voting, but apparently I do a lot of mental commenting and forget to come back. I was glad to see you entered this - I think you have an outstanding talent for photographing people in real settings and this was one I quite liked when I first saw it. It makes me smile - she looks slyly impish and radiates confidence. Quite a joyful portrait!

The males are cooler :-) Too bad you didn't get her beak more prominently; but she doesn't look as silly this way, which is probably to her benefit. I like what you did with the PP quite a bit.
