Chris, I did some cropping to get focus on the bird and I tried to get the contrast back somewhat.
Let me know what you think

Darren, After several tries I cropped the right side of this shot to get the bird more on the foreground. IMO the bushes on the right were too much in the foreground. I suddenly noticed more detail in the bird like the sun going through the feathers on his back.
Let meknow what you think.

Lesley, Looking at your camera and lens I got the feeling that there is more possible with this shot. I took it and applied UnSharp Mask and faded it. The result is a sharper impression.
Let me know what you think.

As said I experimented a little to increase focus in this shot. In the end I think there is more focus if the bottom and left are cropped somewhat.
Let me know what you think.

I also did an attempt to improve it. I optimized levels and did a bit of USM.

Lesley, I cropped the shot get more focus on the bird and less on the flower.
Let me know what you think of it.

I cropped to give full focus to the butterfly as that is in my view the point of focus.
