Nice takeoff pose from a well balanced perch. I like the blurred wings as they add to the action going on. I would have wished that the bird took off a little more toward you.
Hi Jonathatn,
Lovely little fellow and a beautiful background! I like the way one of the feet is off the perch.
I, too, wish the bird looked a little bit more towards you.

Excellent composition, beautiful BG, and a sharp body. The wing blur conveys a nice sense of motion, but I wish the bird was taking off slightly towards us.
