A very nice look at this little guy.
well exposed, nice BG.
I think moving it a bit higher if you can would look nice.

Did you do something with the end of the branch on which the bird is sitting? Looks a little odd as it just stops. Nice pose and good details!

[Satish Ranadive]

Simple and very very sweet image of Kinlet. Love the pose,colors,details and beautiful background.

Regards,
Satish.

A beautiful capture Corey - such a sweet little bird - great composition, sharpness and superb BG - well done..!! If I could make any suggestions it would be to crop a little from the top to further strengthen the composition.

[Grace Scalzo]

Yes, the comp could be improved, but I think you did extremely well to get this little one in sharp focus and sitting still for a moment. I have not succeeded! BG is pretty as well.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Good simple image design, very sharp, love the yellow wingbars. There is a bit too much negative space above IMO, but beautiful BG!! Nice body and head angles. Well done overall, just wish the perch extended beyond the bird's back and out of the frame....

nice capture with good light and nice details, ditto comments above by Dan

[Corey Hayes]

Thanks guys the branch the bird is sitting on was broken off so that why it just ends I removed it because I was not sure it looked good.

Here I added it back and cropped away a bit of the top space.

thanks for the comments.
