There are many good things in this photo..exposure, sharpness, BG and the shot does have a rich quality...I just wish that leaf in the foreground was not there so I could see more of the Kingbird.

Such a unusual shot. The bird seems to be holding its head high for you to take this shot.
Clarity is good. Great shot.
