 One of the many birds having a chilly time in small tree.

Cropped, adjusted curves, cropped again, and again, and again, burn and dodge, then some additional blur to farther soften edges after "depth-of-field effect".

Bird seems to be a little out of focus. Focus should have been centered on its eye.

I'm sure it is difficult to capture a drably colored bird like this, camauflaged as she is in her environment. You succeeded nicely.
