Great interaction, and no way should you clone the sparrow out in my opinion.

Hi Keith...the processing doesn't look right on my equipment...quite a lot of noise in the background and what looks like highlight and shadow tool being used (maybe slightly off). Other than that I like the shot and detail in the woodpecker and like the appearance of the sparrow. I may have gone for a slight tighter crop if it were mine...taking a small slice from the left and right.
