Returning to Nest

Taken over the summer I am working on developing skills picked up over the last few months. Not sure of the bird though Seedeater comes up most often in search. The oportunity was great, just wish my skills at the time could have done it justice. Released under creative commons.

Lots of cleanup and added an eye glint. Also tried to re-texture the feathers but mostly a fail. lol

Still way too noisy, but if I pushed the denoise too much, the details would be wack. Oh well. Enjoyed the play non-the-less. :slight_smile:
