Your bird is sharp,well exposed, nice eye,foot. I like the tiny patch of snow to set the season.
The background is a bit bright for my tastes, and I might try to tone it down, as well as tone down the brighter areas of the trunk. in RLC.
Rather amazing light control with your beamer, to not have the trunk be brighter, like the bird.
Thanks for sharing!

Neat bird! Is it related to the flickers?

Gorgeous species! Nice image as well. Agree on BKGR, and bird looks a hair over-flashed, but that was probably neccessary considering the backlight. Bravo and thanks for sharing!
Thanks Paul! I donīt think itīs related to the Flickers! you can read about it here

I like your original post better! The highlights on the lower right of the tree trunk are the only thing that distracts me.
