    Hi Ron,
    I really love your image; I try so hard to get a good picture of those little birds, but it's so difficult because usually there are lots of twigs and branches around the bird.

    You got the bird with a fantastic BG!
    Whish it would be mine... going on trying hard to get one like yours!

    Great details, BG and light. I would either put the bird lower in the frame or crop a bit off the bottom.

    Nice image. Not the most ideal pose for this species. But nice nonetheless. I would prefer a brighter BG.

    With Manos' suggested crop from the bottom this would pretty much be perfect...

    I also agree about cropping the bottom, over all very well executed.

    Gorgeous pose, clean background, sharp detail throughout, nice perch, and perfect exposure. Just crop a little from the bottom to balance the image better. I love this one!
