The male has pinkish napes and upper breast while female has uniform green plumage.

Arboreal (tree-dwelling) bird, hence must look up the tree.

Canon 80D. 18-200mm lens.  200mm, 1/320 sec, f/5.6, ISO 125

Image photoshopped to remove branches to the left of the bird. Image was "dodged" to brighten the shadows.
