Well, it became much better
Β Some tips for further improvement:
1) try to keep the value of bump mapsΒ  (here concrete blocks) strength as low as possible to avoid sharp shadows and dirty spots. Example: fav.me/d5wevwe (concrete base of greenhouse:Β  0,200Β  ;Β  walkway bricks:Β  0,500)
2) use falloff map to make bird's feathers shiny
3) try to add transmission node of plants to green color - they looks now like plastic artificials
4) you can achieve more uniform lighting without deep shadows -Β  place some white planes near objects in scene, but out of camera view area - something like softboxes in professional photography
5) try to play with imager parameters (camera response, gamma, white balance) - it can greatly change overall color tone and mood of image without any postwork. Bonus: these options are applied in real time during render, without restarting

Heh, well I'll take much better. Dang, you're right about the fake looking daisies. This is turning into a Master Class . I'm definitely going to try your suggestions. Thanks!

Great looking cat. Very realistic, now that I know a thing or two about displacement maps I'll have to update my own.
