Beautiful perch, pose and the bug adds to it. The plumage looks a bit oversharpened and the BG is very noisy. I would also decrease the contrast a little bit and give it a bit more space. Having said that, I really like this image. :)

Lovely COMP and image. Excellent use of fill flash with the light from the rear (???) The hot spot on the too of the head bothers me.
Later and love, artie
