Mockingbirds are nothing if not proud birds, and this mocker proudly strutted his stuff atop a blue spruce in our yard. I've thought about various ways to crop the image but think that the red cones at the bottom add to the composition.

What do you have left as far as the left side of the image goes? The reason I ask is,
the crop as it is now seems a little to much left of center. I'm thinking more room on
the left and a little less on the right so the image is more a little right of center.
I centered the bird because of the way it was perched, as if it were a statue. But what you have done works equally well for me, and I thank you for your comments and effort.
