We like beginners here because we all used to be one.
The first thing I'd say is why have you done such a large crop? There's a very natural tendency to crop close like this to show every bit of feather detail, but apart from an exercise in definition, it's seldom a pleasing picture. Try including the whole bird in the frame and leaving a little space around it so it doesn't look like it's been put into the frame with tyre levers. Showing a bit of the birds natural surroundings results in a more pleasant overall shot. Try to think how the shot would look framed on the wall.
The other thing is your shot is very noisy and the more you crop tight tlike this , the more the noise shows up.
I'd guess this was a pretty cheeky Robin and you were quite close. What lens were you using?
