A nice image with a good pose and great colours on this warbler. You did a good job with the background that can often be a big distraction with all the bright spots through the trees...I like how it turned out. My only nit is I think this perch overpowers the small bird...maybe a tighter crop would make it less dominating??

Beautiful bird here. I like the perch, but would prefer the subject lower in the frame. The bill/perch merge is unfortunate.

Thanks guys. Yes, too bad about the bill merge.
