Nice look at the mature version, I should be so lucky :wink:
Interesting perch & pose, sharp detail. Like the graduated tones of your BG as well.
On the fence about the OOF third stem.
Works either way, but my preference would to be remove & simplify.

This is fine for my tastes. A surprise seeing a non flight shot from you!

One of the best YRW shots I've seen... they are a very common bird here during fall migration but you make this bird look special.

Very nice composition with the perch and pose. I like color transition in the background, way to go Ron.

I can see why you liked it Ron, great pose, perch and background. Wonderful sharp details and love those colours. Sure wish we had them here.

All the best Ron, beautiful shot and work.

Danny.

Nice composition, Ron. I like the lines and the pose of the bird.

Ron, this looks pretty special to me. I love the diagonal line on the stems and the underside of the bird with great eye contact.
