Protecting Her Nest

Wow! I am amazed. I know birds collect twigs & such to build their nests, but I had no idea they also used timber posts, two-by-fours and plywood! I gotta start watching the Nature Channel more. ;-)
Cool shot. I almost think it would've been better to isolate the bird more and maybe just a small part of the nest in the lower left. Just seems the nest takes up disproportionately more space than the bird. Great job though!

Doesn't fit the challenge. :(
...Oh, wait - I see it now. ;-)
Composition is almost too centered. Focus is great and DOF very good. Not a dramatically interesting bird, but a good job capturing it.

Cool and bizarre! I like it. Don't care for the drumsticks being cropped out, but good overall.

Finch Feeding Frenzy

Nice shot - could be a tad sharper and the title...? They don't look frenzied. In fact their not even feeding. I'll let that slide though. ;-) Good job.
...how about "Finch Freak From Facing Photographer" :P
