Identifying "little brown jobbies" is for me very difficult, so I hope this is correct.

Interesting species, Ken. Great background and nice clean pose, but it looks a tad dark on my monitor.

I love the soft muted colors in the bg and the way he's perched on that stem is great. The bird looks tack sharp and the look he gave you is perfect. Nice job! :toast:
