Unfortunately there are too many complementary pairs here to demonstrate the effect of one colour contrasted against its opposite. If the foliage behind the bright red bird had been the bright green that it is at the bottom, that would have been a great demonstration of complementary colour contrast.

Nevertheless, this is a nice photo of a colourful bird.

Polly is very pretty. Some of the reds seem a bit overcontrasted but your comp is good.

I like it but wonder if an abstract of just the tail fethers might have worked well.
