A natural scene, tossing out the rules of birding. Well done. Makes me think of Harry Potter.

I would have preferred if the bird was flying towards you or to the side to get a view of the head, good entry for style of bspurgeon.

I love the use of the shadow tones. Lovely flutter from the bird. Upping the score after a 2nd look. :)

The fluttering bird against the immutable tree. Beautifully composed, most poetic.
