Better "Hair".
But all the subtlety of the prior shot is lost. Try -1 1/3, -2.0 and - 2 2/3 EV for that subject in that light. And/or
spot AE metering.
The metering on most cameras, smart thought it may be, tends to try to balance the whole range of brightness, thus
generally overexposing the brightest parts of high DR subjects. If that brightest part is the point of the shot, and
esp. if it is red-orange-yellow, that all too often leads to clipping of the red channel.
This is a more extreme example, smaller, redder, subject against darker background. but illustrates the point that what
seem like extreme EV adjustments may be useful for the right subjects

And I trimmed the Buddleia bush, in preparation for a new butterfly season.

I'm going to show this to our gardener. We have an ongoing argument about how far to
prune the Buddleia. 😁
