I like this a lot Dennis, and I dont see the perch as any big problem, if it was a little smaller even better, but as you say he picked it, not you, however there is just a slight halo effect on the upper edge just right of the bird. I think the background compliments the bird well in tones and color saturation, the birds beak is still the most colorful aspect so I believe the background is very nice as is....wishing the oof twigs behind were not there, but that's being very picky
Overall I think you've done well, the bird is sharp where it needs be, and loving the favorite fine detail especially the little tuft of feather jutting out from his side. The eye is lovely and feet are very clear, possibly a bit tight in the frame = personal choice maybe and I feel would work nicer or as nice in a vertical format
Love those little bush birds !

Hi Dennis,
I like the details you captured and the colors are nice. I like the overall composition and find the background complimentary for the most part - the oof branches are noticeable but not a deal killer for the image.

The cardinal looks great, good details and colours. The background is lovely as is and I would not desaturate it. Perch is OK, but a bit large...not too bad though. I do find the composition a bit tight though, you say you cropped the image but do you have more to re-add at top (and left and right to retain the ratio)?
