Cool image. I like the contrast of the red head with the oof pink/purple flowers. It really pops and draws your eye to his face. The merger of the beak and the branch is not ideal but I am guessing the bird was not responsive to your posing instructions. :)

Beautiful Red-bellied Woodpecker and the pink background definitely says Spring.
