Well seen and timed. Unfortunately it seems to be out of focus (or maybe just pixelated from cropping?). Good composition and the contrasting red and green work well.

The color contrast on this is nice, but the lack of focus really hurts the shot, I think.

The focus has grabbed on the leaves causing the bird and tree to be out of focus.

Officially a Red-bellied fellow, which I find one of the more confusing common names in birds. Shot is a little soft and the bright white on the tree's bark is a little overwhelming.
