    Lovely subject, maybe a bit over-sharpened. You could also try and soften the line behind his head with selective blurring.
    Interesting perch, I'd either given it a bit more room after the last thorn, or eliminate it altogether.

    Really awesome capture and a great pose. I wish the oof (tree?) were just a bit separated from the bird.

    Hi JP.

    Nicely done. Good look-back head angle. Agree with Fab's excellent suggestions but for the fact that sharpening looks OK from here. Was the bird coming to a feeder?

    JP, If you are working a feeder, you gotta do better with the BKGRs by moving either the feeders or the perch of both. I do like your choice of a perch.
