An overall good profile pose. I like the light snowfall and nice perch. I do find the darker branches in upper right corner somewhat distracting - ideally they would have been the same tonality as the ones in the lower left corner.
Hi John, cracking little subject with great detail and the falling snow adds to the scene. Agree with Dan's points, but you might like to look at going a bit cooler on the WB and reducing some Contrast too. Selectively reducing the Contrast & Black in the branches may also address Dan's observation.
