Nice bird, perch, and BG. I love the feather patterns on the head and wing. I wish the bird was higher in the frame though.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Head angle, perch and sharpness look good. I agree on putting the bird higher in the frame and tone down the bright branch.

Thanks for the comments I really should have moved the bird up, but my concentration was on the mess at the bottom. I will try a rework today.

Lighting is slightly harsh due to which you have lost some details other wise a great image ,BG and perch.
