A bit to much detail on the cardinal, I had this trouble and it ended up that my monitor was set incorrectly.

Not quite a silhouette. The foreground tree limbs make this image a bit too busy for me.

Image feels taken from distance and with little light that causes bad focus. Composition is way too complicated and distracting from main subject. Suggesting to find better angle of capture. Keep shooting!

I find too many details on the bird to say it is a silhouette..

I think you've got some issues with motion blur or focussing. Composition-wise, I'd try to get a better angle to separate the bird from the tree limbs a bit better.

Rather than a sharp silhouette, this seems more like an underexposure. The lack of sharpness makes it less appealing to look at.
