Cool! Did you use flash on this? Kind of has a "flash" feel to it. Love the composition with the curve of the veg, and the pose of the bird.

William, I like the pose but I think you may be overly saturated.

Nice details and pose. The image looks significantly over saturated which hurts the image for me.

OK, I hear your comments about oversaturation. I have toned it down a bit (maybe not enough for many of you pros)...but I do admit that I like oversaturated images, and I find that most non-photographers also prefer them.

Great pose and composition, William. Nits mentioned.
