about the only thing I would have done, and that is IF you are able to, was to focus closer up to the gorgeous little bird and blur out the leaves a bit. What a great capture!!

I think a tighter crop would benefit the picture, the leaf at the top is kind of distracting.

Great shot. I agree with every one else. I'm wondering if you can change the color of the leaf near the beak to give it some more contrast so it will pop a little more. Beautiful bird shot.

Great open-beaked shot!

I posted up my Robin here if you wanted to take a look.

Regards,

Rich.

Nice color, light. I would like the picture even more if your beautiful little robin wered off-center--say, in the lower right third.

Nice shot!
