What a good idea to have framed this picture vertically and what a peculiar bird. Ouf, your description is sensational and I can hardly imagine myself waking up to that sound, even worse, my neighbour who shoots crows because they wake him up... ;-) The bird is beautiful though, I like the long red flapping wings under the chin and it almost looks like a road runner. I am sure that going to Australia is a fantastic trip, seeing all those different animals and plants. Thank you John,
Francine

Your notes are very detailed and helpful. While not the prettiest bird, they do have an interesting look about them. The color of their eyes remind me of junior Ospreys before their eyes turn color for good. Nice framing here and good pov. The background works nicely since it brings the subject more into focus.

Hi John,
Brilliant shot mate, the vertical crop is just perfect, amazing detail, stunning colors, really good work, love the LP too, all the best Cheers Rick :)
John,
I hope you get over a hundred points for this, not that you care. Excellent shot. Sharpness, clarity, color brightness, contrast, saturation and ect., technically, everything is perfect. For showing us the very rarely seen bird and flower, earned an extra point from me. Thank you so much for posting. I like the frame, would like to see more of different shots of the same bird and flower. One of my favorite but I won’t mark it, not my habit to do so. Great info too.

Hi John,
Wonderful profile shot of this beautiful Red Whattlebird with outstanding details, colours and sharpness on its plumage. Those red gills really look interesting and majestic. What a fantastic perch it is on too! It looks fully stretched trying to suck nectar which process you have described so elaborately. Perfect lighting and DOF with excellent POV and composition. Kudos.
TFS.

Hi John
Great POV and framing here - it really emphasises the length of the bird. The flower head really helps the effect. Great detail throughout.

Hello John. I have never seen this bird before and I have never heard of such description of the sound they are making. The note is very well written and it is news to me.
The picture is well cropped in vertical format showing the length of the bird and the texture of the perched subject. I like the sharpness in your bird capture. The vivid details of the plumage is flawless. Well managed depth in keeping the background blurry. What makes it more interesting is the lens that you use without any extension or converter. Hard for me to imagine the closeness that you actually get to the bird. Very well done and I guess birds are more fond with you than me :-)
Best regards. Jusni

Hi John.
this is a great LP-version, one of the best so far, pity that
I can't twist my monitor.
Very good sharpness and fine details. well seen in the large version. Lovely colors with nice light and good POV.
Maybe it's a wee bit tight but as we have a limit for LP-version so it's nothing.
Great work.

Hi John, One of the best bird photos seen for a while. I especially like the large WS version, your clarity is superb. Amusing notes and great idea to have a link to that site of bird calls. Congratulations. Murray.

Hi John,
Your note is giging a lot of information about the sound done by the bird. The subject is well framed. The details and colors of the red wattlebird are clear and precise. The light brings out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello John,
This is an amazing capture of the Red Wattlebird for its sharpness, pose on the flowers, POV and composition in a great vertical framing.
We had many opportunities to photograph this bird but non were as successful as this shot and for that reason it's going into my favourites! Thank you!

Hello John.
A beautiful and new(for me) species presented in a fantastic composition.I liked the vertical crop.Excellent POV and DOF.Very sharp and good details of the plumage.The pose you have captured of the bird feasting itself to the honey in the flower is excellent.
Thanks for the share,
Smitha.
By he way excellent notes too, John. I liked your name for the bird.:)
After listening to its call in the link you have provided, I think that name is very apt.
