    The side lighting is soft enough to work very well here. Gorgeous little bird and I like that you left it smaller in the frame. Nice behavior captured. There is a dust sensor spot visible towards the left edge of the frame, above the perch, parrallel with the bird's head...

    Stunning little bird and I think you chose the right composition. Some may have been tempted to go tighter, but I like this. Your BG is stunning and I love that calling pose. I may consider a little more sharpening of your bird.

    Agree with all that has been said, very nice bird and bg. I do notice a spot and faint horizontal line towards the bottom of the perch...

    Oh yeah, this is very sweet! The thumb does not do this image justice. I'd be tempted to eliminate the small white line touching the perch near the bottom, and the small OOF white circle just above that. All else looks excellent.
