Nice light, pose and eye contact. I might sharpen the bird a bit more and put him slightly lower in the frame if you have more room.

Very nice image Bill,
I love the colors and the soft background. The bird is tack sharp.. For my taste, I would off set the bird in the frame and get him out of the center...:D

Agree with Axel's recommendations. Very nice subject and setting. Nicely done.

Thanks for commenting...
I thought that it works well with the branches below the bird being "whole". I will look at it again to follow your suggestion.

Thanks again.
