Not yet. :-) Chuck's method can work, but it requires a lot of hand work
brushing with a hard edged brush and
considerable care.
You can see the halo of partially blurred background around the bird and
unevenness of blur application in the background.
I used more sophisticated tools/techniques, some of which may not be available
in PSE, to get a better result with less
work than doing it all with painting.
