Taken in a place with no name (See more photos or videos here)

This was taken yesterday in my back garden. We had some beautiful light after a very dull start to the day and I took advantage of it.
I used the Canon 75-300 IS lens but the bird feeder is about 3m away from my backdoor so I can't get as close as I'd like. This is a very close crop of a much larger image. The original crop is 1188x1188 pixels but I really like how this came out.
There is purple fringing on the highlight around his mouth, and in his eye but it's not too bad thankfully.
