MxCat, for me, the squirell as the main object is placed too far to the right and the fence on the left is leading the eye out of the main object and out of the frame. I would agree with you if squirell would stay turned to other direction and looking to the left and not to the right as here.
But anyway - this is just my opinion which is not have to be right.. You are the artist.

Nice capture - I love the sharp details of the squirrel, with the blurry movement of his tail!

Konstantin... I appreciate your comments and your effort.. I think leaving the fence in describes the scene better.. The squirrel is showing his annoyance with me over encroaching on his territory.. Cropped it is less evident..

Mxcat, I allowed myself to download your picture and do the changes I mentioned - just as an idea:

I think this picture can win a lot if you re-crop it, first of all - if you get rid of all these disturbing "wood" on left side.
