In camera I really liked this one but when printed the flower buds hanging under the body look really odd.
You aren't supposed to play around with wildlife images too much, I could clone them out for my own use I suppose...

Enjoyed the opening set very much, but this one really steals my heart. The brightly colored background seems the perfect Costa Rican setting. Cloning? Unless you're entering to some contest with strict rules on editing, you should absolutely do what pleases you!

presuming the #3 photo is a whippoorwill, great shot and the camouflage is incredible
The whip-poor-will is North American, the Potoo is Central and South American. Both are in the Nightjar family. (I love Google )

Thanks Linda, the similarity in those two birds is rather striking...
Hard enough to see a Whip-poor-will here

Great set, thanks for sharing. Costa Rica has been on my buck-list so your images have taken me there for a moment.

Very nice. amazing camouflage on that one bird (what is it?).

The beak on the toucan ways very little so it is not difficult for it to hold its head up.

The colours are not quite the same.
The first time the image was processed completely in Lightroom.
This time from Lightroom I went into Photoshop and deleted the dangly bits and exported back to Lightroom as a TIFF and then created the JPEG...
