This is an Orange-crowned Warbler, not a Yellow Warbler. I like the pose and setting. I'd consider cropping from top and right to move the subject out of the center of the frame.

I like the pose, eye contact and setting.

A great shot Mark. I agree with Rich on cropping from the right.

Nice setting, I like cedar! The bird is indeed a bit centered, but I can understand that there are some subtle colors and patterns on the top and right side that you probably wouldn't want to crop away. The light is a bit harsh and this detracts just a little from an otherwise excellent photo.

you're right the light was harsh-not sure why as it was an early morning shot, I had to tone down brightness quite a lot already

Nice pose and choice on DOF. Wondering if this is a large crop already?
