Now that is eye contact. Could use maybe a little more dof to get the back foot and tail, but looking great on everything else. :toast:

Very nice, I think having the depth of field you have and the important features in focus give this image some interest. Your eye travels right to the head of the bird.

Anthony, I couldn't take this great a shot if the bird were stuffed and glued on the perch. Outstanding.
