    I like the eye contact, BG and composition. I might lighten the eye and selectively sharpen the head more.

    Nice shot and smooth BG, on my screen the colors are a bit mute and can benefit from sat. but it may just be my scree. I'd prefer more sharpening on the feather and head. Eye contact is a plus.

    Nice light, pose, and perch. Ditto Axel on the sharpening. Did you set this up?

    Vireo's have that fine feathers almost like waxwings, I use smart sharpening in photoshop with an amount of 40% and a radius of 0.3 IMO no more sharpening is required and is probably a personal taste thing. This was not a setup but a perch of his choosing.
