I am not a bird photography but I made a grab shot of this guy somewhere in the Caribbean ... can anyone tell me what it is ... ? And, is there anything I could quickly do to make it a better wall hanger ... (I do have LR and PS but very little experience in either) ...

I think it may be a Bananaquit or (Sugerbird.)

I did a google search and came up with this. It might be the same bird, but I really don't know.

Perhaps it's this one. It does look like an oriole to me.

Thanks Team ... I do appreciate the responses ... !

Sandy, I think you nailed it with the "Sucrier" of Saint Martin ... if fact, I'll have to check, but, I may have taken the picture while on Saint Martin ... !

I like the picture and I think it is just good enough to get me interested in taking more pictures of birds ... I do have a grab shot of a humming bird that is kinda cool too ... I don't get the exotic ones here in Central Pennsylvania but, I can try to capture the ones that we do get.

Again, thanks all ...
