This is a cute picture, but above that it's a very well-executed picture. I love how you've used the tree in the composition and the balace of colors (green/brown in the background, red/blue/black in the foreground) works quite well. You also did a good job showing a bit of the bird's personality instead of going for the traditional majestic pose, and I respect that because it's much harder work and makes for a more unique shot. Thanks for this.

Not one of those birds you would "flock" to (ohhhhhhhhh, groan...bad pun!) but this shot of it is. Great job.

amazing picture - and I notice the bands about the birds feet that make me curious about it. Your efforts show in the quality of this picture.
