OK. I assume "punch" is some combination of vibrance and clarity?
Anyway, here is my attempt. It's amazing what you can do once you
figure out how to develop just one shot and export it ;-)

Yowza! that's the ticket...
(I don't use lightroom, but in Elements I'd slide the saturation up a
bit, and the contrast and fiddle and
use my color changer sliding thingy to get the colors right....)
vast improvement , Steve... from a cute ok shot to an excellent one -
just need a couple of gals and a guy to put the pressure on :-)

There ya go, Steve. Now you're using Lightroom, right? Well, if you are,
try giving the image some punch by choosing the "punch" filter. Then nudge
the "lights" just a bit. You just might like it. If not, abandon
suggestions immediately :-). Cheers, Christine

I agree with Paul about a tighter crop. I like the diagonal shadows in the
back, but the stuff in the upper left corner is a bit distracting. Is this
a posh neighborhood for the birds. :-) Cheers, Christine

Fun stuff.Every bird should have an address!
I think I would like this more cropped a lot tighter and perhaps as a
vertical.
