Jacquie, this is very nice, i would have cropped a bit from the bottom of the image to get ride of the oof branch (lefthand side) saying that, i think the sharpness and exposure are right on the money!

Nice, your lucky to get them your garden... we get cats in ours...

Everything works for me here. Yes, as Rene says, the OOF foreground is a little distracting, but really I hardly see it for the quality of the bird which is outstanding.
