Wonderful all the way around!

I may see a version without the branch on the bottom right, but it's just so parallel to the subject!

[Karl Egressy]

Excellent pose and composition, Glenn.

[Don Lacy]

Beautiful image Glen may be just a touch more space on the left.

[Tim King]

Nice to see some motion in the wings, Glenn. I really like this image...I give the bottom branch a 2/10 on my distraction meter because I like how it's parallel with the bird.
