Nice and clear focus...I think I would try cropping most of the brown foreground.

Nice angle on your bird Sid. The brown stuff in front of your bird takes away from your composition...:eek: Took the liberty to make a few corrections... see if you like them...:D
I cropped from the bottom of the frame, increased the contrast, and kicked up the color hue just a notch, also sharpened a wee bit..:D

I like your visitor Sid !!! Glad you were ready!!!!

I like the changes Gus made Particularly the crop from the bottom Much cleaner image now You could even take some from the top I like there is more room up front than from the back Maybe a tad more room at the tail would have been good.

Would try setting something up for your visitors !!!!

Gus, thanks I really like the changes you made. I always worry about cropping too much.

I am working on setting up a better feeding station closer to our house. The only problem we have is that we have several Cooper's and Sharp shinned hawks on our property, so we avoid feeders in the open otherwise they become hawk buffets.

Very clean shot and the exposure is dead on. Like what Gus did very much.
