Hi Geri,

Thanks for sharing. I find bird photography so difficult, so please bear in mind that I am doing this just from a compositional perspective - I am not sure how much better I could do it (LOL, at least I am honest).

The two critiques that I will mention are: First, the shot looks a little 'dull' like it could take another round of post processing. Fortunately, I think this is very fixable. You are losing shadow areas a bit (for example in the eye). The second thing is that while I know the bird feeder certainly attracts the birds, I don't find the feeder very attractive in the shot (LOL, that of course is the conundrum because it is what is luring the poor bird there).

Thanks again!
James
