    Great shot of a striking bird, the breast looks a tad bright perhaps highlights could be dropped a bit unless you have already done that

                    Striking bird and photo , think I might of given it a bit more space on the left if it were mine , and this is not already full frame ? Background and perch are good , and not always easy to get . Well done .

                        I'd have cropped from the right and dropped the highlights, but nevertheless, a good pic.
