This is really nice, particularly with the snow. I'm shocked that f/9 didn't get the whole perch in focus, but I do appreciate
the nice sharp view of his foot.

Really nice one here, with snow, composition, interesting perch. Well exposed.
The perch must be angled a bit away from us, but fortunately the bird in within the DOF.
Cheers

Great looking bird and pose you have here. The perch is nice and I like the falling snow too. I think f9 might have been a bit much and it looks like you could have given up some f stop for lower ISO as the image is a bit noisy, especially the BG. Another round of NR to the BG only will help this one for sure. Well done

I was also thinking that the perch looks angled away from us with the bottom part falling out of dof range. I love the bit of mosses on it, as well as the snow.
