Hi there, I'm reviewing your poem for the winter I-write. You were the poster before me, so I'm offering my thoughts here. Please do keep in mind I'm not very good at poetry. *Smile*

First impressions:
The picture gave a very intense feeling. If you believed, you could even say it was magical. Kind of reminds me of Narnia.
The poem itself left me feeling mystified. In a good way. I'll probably be thinking about this as I take my final later.

Structure:
Looks good to me. The rhymes work, the line flow well into each other, and most importantly, it makes sense!

Word Choice:
There's wonderful imagery here, I can see what's going on without having to look at the picture.
I like how you said "quick flutter", it reminds me of a startled bird, or one that's unsettled, a quick jump, flapping its wings, and resting again.

Overall:
I do wonder what the bird knows now. *Laugh*
Other than that, I really liked your poem. I didn't see any spelling errors, and your structure seems to fit with the villanelle description I looked up. Good job and keep writing!
