I like the bg, a nice clean shot and sharp focus on the head. The side lighting is problematic and I wish that bird had turned its head more toward you.
A life bird for all I am sure. Thanks for sharing it. An excellent critique by Connie. With the right head angle, I could have lived with the back light.

Thanks for your comments!
To me, this image is about side lighting and I like the way the bird is looking towards the light.
If I did a repost, it would probably contain more contrast.
If I was able to make the photograph again, I would use a little fill flash and yes, you guessed it, try and have the head angled slightly towards the viewer.
