Great light, details, eye contact and BG. The large perch doesn't bother me at all, actually, it complements the bird nicely. I might remove the white spot on the flower, though. Keep them coming!

The perch is big, but not intrusive, so I like it as presented. Very sharp and great BG.
Keep them coming!

Lovely shot, Dominic. I like the texture contrast between the bird and sunflower. BG is lovely. I would clone out the stray strands coming from the back of the head.
