Very sharp little bird and perch, BG is perfect. It is amazing how an injured animal can get by.

Very very nice Joe, extra sharp and lovely composition with no distracting bits, nice fine perch as well....my usual comment on images like this " love the earthy color tones "
Ordinarily I would think better eye contact with the camera would be a bonus, but not in this case. He/she looks a little forlorn or contemplative which works in nicely with his poor little foot, his little injured foot is also extra sharp and catches the light very well = image has obvious feeling/mood
