Like the leaf above it's head, not sure about the one on the left, I would suggest crop this to vertical to remove the left hand leaf and branch. Nice detail and color, the backdrop is very smooth and I'd be inclined to slightly darken the pupil in the eye as it has a flashed look

Ditto Phil (leaf at left, flashed eye). I love the leaf atop, and the beautiful green BG. Nice details on the subject.

Lorant, I agree with the framing suggestions. Beautiful background. A slight head turn to the bird's right would have helped display the beak better.

Hi Lorant, one thing, the position of the bird is not natural, it seens like sick bird, or something wrong..The bird doens't perch like that normally. the rest of the comment for sure, agree.
