Fun story, you never know what will happen in the backyard!
I like his head position and angle. He looks a bit sad.
Framing by the branches/twigs. pretty effective. In a perfect world, perhaps not the angled twig that just touches the breast
The biggest issue for me is the unusual leaf just above his head. Did you do any processing of it? Looks rather odd. Feel free to post a unprocessed version of this image to show us what you started with.
Cheers

Hi Randy and thank you for the valued inputs. It's just a FG OOF leaf and looks the same in the raw file. No special PP there.

I like the second image because of lack of the offending leaf at the top.

So sweet of a find. Worth getting awakened for! Yes, the second is much better for the lack of that leaf and for the clearer colours and contrast. The first seems "muddy" if that makes sense. Depending on what was above, I feel that pointing your lens up a touch more may have been beneficial, especially if it was more greens up there. Fun image and story

Thanks so much gents. Yes, as i was investigating Randy's suggestion I also noticed I blew the original contrast playing with light and shadow sliders in DPP on OP. Made sure to leave the contrast the lens produced this time.
Thanks again...

A nice story. Always a plus to photograph the fledings. You did well given the setting.
