I am afraid I have to agree with Phil. Still, it is an easy problem to solve and otherwise a nice image.

Nits covered, it;s nevertheless a lovely composition, really good colour and detail. :toast:

Rotation easily fixed. I kind of wish the angle of view was a bit lower to separate the head more from the background, but probably wasn't possible.

A nice image of a bird I've never seen.
