I like his pose - like he's checking you out. I don't mind the soft focus so much for this one, maybe it's the influence of the creamy-coloring of the background, but I think the overall softness suits this shot.
My reason for a little soft in the focus, is the texture is lost on the breast of the bird. and how did you get an aperture of 1.8 on a lens that reads 3.5 ?
Thanks for catching the mistake, Brian. I have corrected the lens in the image info. I was using a 50mm f1.4 prime lens.

I think this is definitely on the good side of good/bad, but the DOF is so shallow it makes the bird seem blurry. Nice composition -- I especially like how the branches frame the bird naturally. I also like how the pale colors contrast with the bright bird.
