Well I am not much one for removing things from shots of Nature. Its really not Nature then anymore is it? The branch going up is distracting but I personally am not sure its a bad thing. It makes the image something to explore. Now I might be biased since I worked on the PBS Nature episode of Humming birds but I like it. I just think the top should be darker to help bring us down from the top of the image. The sharp of the branch is like a nice path that brings use along the flowers to the nice surprise. I am guessing that this flower gets a good amount of birds which allowed you to set up and wait for this to happen.

I didn't see the bird 'til you talked about the image, Randy. Getting rid of the twist of flowers in the upper L corner would solve that problem.
