Nice bird, nice head angle. Nice BKGR. Seems lacking fine feather detail in the blues; how large a crop? Too tight in the frame; could use more room all around. Highlights on perch too bright; repair with a Linear Burn if the are not burned; otherwise re-convert.

Robert this is extremely sharp and well toned image. I would see a recovery needed on the perch though and bit more room around as it looks too tight in frame.
