Amazing colours captured on the Robin, Christopher. Comp wise, I would take off the bottom, and clone out the OOF twig coming out of his chest, and maybe the other twig in the FG. Keep them coming.
Excellent job by Stuart above to which I would add that with the bird's head turned away just a bit, the eye is somewhat dead and there is little light on the face. I like the main perch.

Excellent image. Agree about cloning out the branches in front of the bird, and lightening the eye might be something to consider. Perch and pose are very pleasing.
