Greetings from the Critique Club!
Composition:
The subject is a little too centered for my liking and the tree trunk on the right side is a bit distracting and takes the attention away from the main subject. I think a tighter crop would have worked better here.
Background:
The background is perfect for this subject and compliments it very well. I like the bokeh and the way it contrasts against the foreground without being distracting.
My opinion:
I would have personally given this picture a 6. It meets the challenge just fine but I am not crazy about the crop. I like the colors and the subject but I really would have liked to see more of the bird and less of the surroundings. Perhaps the bird's head filling the frame would have had a much stonger impact.
If you have any questions or comments on this critique, please feel free to PM me.

| Beautiful. I'm not sure if the subject being so centered really works with this shot. |

| Like the composition. The blurred background and the sharp focus on the subject really makes this photo stand out. |

| Simple and lovely composition. I like his positioning on that branch, the detail of the feathers and the shallow dof. |
