Nice detail and light on this cold little fellow. The crop doesn't quite work for me though. Maybe cut out an inch or so of the bulky perch and add that amount to the top.

Pretty cool frame here John. I like the position of the bird on the perch. I agree with Colin re the crop. Its a pity the birds head wasn't turned a wee bit to our right, as that would have given you a better HA. The snow adds, and I like the facial expression.

This is such a special image esp when we are down here in FL sweating bullets. Love the snowflakes and the amazing feather details. The comp works well centered. Pleasing image all around.
