The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
Probably one of the nicer looks at a bluebird I’ve had and it was in a tree just across the street in a neighbor’s yard; glad I had my camera with me. There was a vertical component to the perch coming out of the bird’s head I removed.
Specific Feedback
Any thoughts appreciated.

Excellent, Allen. It’s highly unusual to get a perch pointing toward the photographer to work well, but you pulled it off on this one. The bluebird itself is superb and overall it’s just a gorgeous image. The only thing I might play with is the exposure as it looks like it could come up just a bit to match the way I usually see them.
A gorgeously detailed look at this guy!! A wonderful BG and interesting perch. If you have the canvas, I wouldn’t mind a bit more at the bottom, and left, so the end of the branch isn’t feeling cramped, and to move the lighter detail on the right hand branch away from the edge. But that is really nitpicking for a gorgeous image!
Excellent details on the bluebird. I like how you got the entire perch to be in focus. Good lighting and a very nice background make this a fine image.
HI Allen, really nice detail throughout on the bird and smooth background - f10 worked very well here. Nice subdued light. Composition looks good to me. Well done.
