 Getting fanciful with another Junco. The highlight behind him is actually the hubcap on my neighbor's minivan ;-)

Another good bird photo with a really good catch-light in the eye. I don't know this type of bird at all - we don't have them in the UK certainly. In body shape they resemble a stocky sparrow - are they in the same family? The highlight in the background works well, setting off the bird nicely - would never have thought it was from a hubcap!

its head tends to blend into the background a little too much for me
perhaps a tad contrast might help

but as for sharpness its one of your best

You have such a beautiful collection of birdshots. I love your soft backgrounds. That hubcap highlight is so soft, no-one would know what it is, but it contributes to the range of tones in the bg.

The gray blues are just so soothing and beautiful. Your bird shots are worthy of a book. :~)
