Bill:

I like the mixture of colors, the pose, subtle background. I might consider a small crop from the top.

Like how you've captured all the many colors, rich and subtle under that perfect light, Bill. Nice perch as well, and just enough softness in tree/shrub showing in background. Excellent detail on bird and perch.

Just beautiful. Lovely pose and glorious colours, I appreciate you will probably disagree but I would lift the darkest elements a little.
