I think this would be even better if you cropped the image, removing everything to the left and beneath the inflorescence on which the lorikeet is sitting.

Beautiful colors. The combination FA 300 and K-S2 makes a sharp and colorful picture. I agree with WMarkRoberts. Cropping would have had two advantages: The Lorikeet more to the left and less distraction. Greetings from The Netherlands

You are both right. I should have cropped like this (or even tighter):

Good call on the portrait orientation for your crop—this is simply stunning!
