Hi Ray I like the bird placement with the extra room to the left, was thinking a little tighter but would alter the way the perch comes in and I like it the way it is. Bg is complementing and makes the birds stand out well, would desaturate the yellow just a tad .. but not much it is close.... great looking perch !!

Nice comp Ray! I do think that the yellows are too saturated though, for this species (Western Kingbird). Might be a little oversharpened also but I'm viewing on my laptop.

Hi Ray - lovely perch - agree with the above comments - also looks a tad over sharpened to me.
As mentioned a little desat on the yellows - great bg.
Good Show:)

Very nice image, Ray. I like the pose, perch and Bg. Beautiful Bird.

Lovely shot..I like how the perch colors complement the yellow on the bird itself. Wonderful Bg! I vote for taking just a bit of sat out of the yellows...not much! Big Congrats!

Ray, what a pretty bird! Can't comment on the yellow as I have never seen this bird. I love the composition and yes, the perch does complement the bird very well! Could be a tad over-sharpened.
Best,
Nicki
