I like that the bird, while it seems to be tied to its perch, is still a wild creature -- look at its eyes. If you give it half a chance, it will be G-O-N-E! The narrow DOF poops it nicely from the background, and the toning gives a needed warmth -- without it, the bird would appear to be a killer waiting to get free; with it, it is a wild creature waiting to get loose.
