Sweet perky pose!
The reflection in the eye is very nice.
IQ excellent and great DOF. BG is super as well.
I might take a sliver off the bottom to reduce the weight of the perch but lovely as presented,

Love these little guys, but have nothing image-wise of them yet. I like the tail-up pose and nice details throughout. I agree you could darken the perch, and I think some kind of an horizontal would work (realizing you cropped from that format) with a bit less below and more at left (and a tad right for ratio).
