    Nice bird, and neat inverted "F" perch (too bad your name doesn't start with that letter - a vertical flip of this image would have been perfect for you!!). Great BG. I wouldn't mind seeing the subject placed a little higher in the frame (by cropping about 40% of the empty space above). Also, be careful with hot yellows...as posted some of them are clipped.
