The exposure is really nice and the bird is sharp as a tack.

Excellent! I have a fondness for Flycatchers, and this one is a beauty! Gorgeous, complimentary BG, super sharp, nice perch....great all the way around!

[Daniel Cadieux]

Nice image with a beautiful profile pose, details, colours, BG. I find the perch a tad thick and dull, but we can't always be choosy unless a species is easily lured onto specific perches....

[Karl Egressy]

I can only say good things about this image, as it is very attractive including the looking back pose, background details and sharpness.

Nothing to alter in this, superb detail, light and great backdrop, all sits in the frame nicely....extra nice shot Vishal
