Nice alert pose, in a somewhat strange setting - like to many perches and just one bird :wink: I think the comp works fine here.

My opinion differs from John's on this one as I find the setting works very well and adds lots of extra interest.

I love this shot Andy, I think the busy background works really well with the bird, nice shot.

Very nice image. I think the setting adds to this too. Nice shooting :toast:
