Red face Welcome!

This is a photo I took (not exactly macro but close enough). Do you guys have any suggestions. I just got photoshop elements recently so I am having fun with that. I cloned some chipped paint off the bird, edited the coloring a little, and used a palette filter on the background. Thanks! Photo

I'm not a fan of the pp-ed background. I think it would look really nice with the background having some bokeh, which would create similar effect to what you have created, just more natural and aesthetically pleasing. A low f-stop would help achieve this, or you could blur it in photoshop.
