If you're talking quarter moon shaped highlight on the tree trunk, yes it is quite some distance away from the branch the bird is perched on, its an out of focus highlight. I could knock it down a bit by burning it in.

Nice portrait of a very handsome bird!

There is something that distracts my eye just to the left of the most
vertical branch.  Is that part of the scene or something on the lens
or the sensor?

Cardinals are very territorial birds.  This morning and early after noon two
very red birds kept chasing each other outside my office window.  This one
finally flew to this branch about 25ft off the ground and proclaimed himself
the winner.
