Very nice. I never see mine looking as pristine as that - the mousebirds 
chow them them to ribbons.

I disagree with Ken and Dan - normally I woudl find the highlights 
distracting but the "bird" looks like she is looking up at them as if 
they were shining a spotlight on her on a stage so they work as part of 
the composition... might take them down just a hair in brightness, but 
that my just be a function of my monitor vs yours
