Well done, Dan. Nice pose, perch and BG. Good handling of the flash.

The background looks great to me,Dan. It complements the color of the perch and the bird really stands out. I like the pose and composition with the bird looking out of the frame. Well done.

I like the pose, details and clean BG. Maybe a tad more contrast.
