    I like your perch, flowers, and BG. Nice head angle. I might darken the lower 1/4 of the image a bit as it seems strongly lit.

    Lovely looking bird with great IQ
    Nice perch with flowers and all that around, smooth BG is pleasing to eye
    A bit of luminosity reduction on the perch may be nice

    Nice setting and pose, Rick. You might want to selectively darken the bird and the perch.
