Nice and sharp with great details. Love the perch(don't miss the feet), pose(including HA) and the composition. You probably already did, but might tone down the bright spots below a little more. I really like the 3d feel of this one. TFS

Lovely exposure and details across the subject, but I do miss the feet! Especially since it would be so cool to see the bright orange toes. White bit below rear is a bit distracting, but I do like the specular highlights behind.
Composition looks good but could be loosened a bit to give him a bit more room.

I love the exposure and the light. Details are very nice. I agree with Dorian on the looser composition. I really like the mossy rock, but I wish we had a view of the feet (not much you could do about that). I also like the bird's pose a lot. Really well done John!
