Very nice colours Richard. Lovely detail on the bird and I like the HA. I think the bird would look better in front of a plain looking BG, but, we can't choose that. I like the perch apart from the branching at the bottom. Again, there isn't much you can do, because of the length of the tail.

Nice subject, pose, HA and perch. The BG isn't to bad as it is different and I like the comp you chose. Well done
