Very nice image.
Love the falling snow and the way the talons are holding on to the perch in opposite directions.
Terrific BG as well. The comp suits the shape and direction the branch.
Just wish the tip of the beak was more visible against the far wing,
Gail

Beautiful wintery feel to this image and I love how the bird is almost awkwardly gripping the perch for balance. Nice bird placement, lovely snow covered perch and exposure.
Slight head turn would've been good, but this definitely works for me. Nicely done Frank.

Frank looks like the bird is on a slippery perch and is hanging on, spread wings and tail make it for me as does the bits of falling snow.
