Hi David! Nice DOF and sharpness. Bird looks great against that green BG. I might go vertical here to minimize the visual impact of the OOF bush on the right side of the frame, which I find a little distracting in the current crop. Thanks for posting!
Love the BKGR and the soft light but with the bird angled away from you this one does just not work for me. Sometimes making a sound of some sort can get the bird to face you....
