Just a pretty bird on a wire. Not sure what kind. Adjusted brightness/contrast, auto saturate, digital camera noise reduction, resize, sharpen, add border, and save.

Cool bird. Like the composition and the crop. What needs work is the focus. I know you were probably pretty far away - at least I hope those powerlines are up high! And I know wild birds are not easy to capture - I'm sure this one wasn't an exception. 6 - good luck in the challenge!
This is a waxwing, right? Very pretty birds. It's too bad the lighting wasn't more on the bird to give finer detail and to separate his eye and beak a little better. 5
You have composed it well and have created interest in the shot, but for some reason you have not been able to capture the true beauty of the bird. The quality of the image is poor. Could be because of the equipment you are using, I don't know.
