Beautiful photograph. The composition, the lines the simplicity... you have an eye for great photos. Great Job -9. (Not a Ten because it is not outside the box. Everything else though is absolutely perfect!!)

This is a nice capture of a Black Capped chickadee(my guess anyway) I like the background and the detail in the left side of the breast. I wish there had been a bit of detail in the eye area. Still a 6 though.

Very nice composition and he's nice and sharp. I just wish I could see more of the detail in his face. It might be a monitor difference, but most of his head is solid black here, as is the black patch at the top of his breast.

Great shot! Maybe a little too much negative space for me, but still great!

He looks rather smug and content, doesn't he? In scrolling down to comment, I think a bit of the top could be cropped, though the composition works well as it is, too. Lovely bokeh.

Well framed.

focus is ok, I can make out feather hairs, good. Color and saturation are good. Composition is ok, but too much blank space above. You might try this on landscape making the photo wider and not taller. And if it had a nice catchlight in the eye this would be one of the better shots I've seen today.
Nice job. I started using fill flash on birds to get the catchlight, it works and doesn't seem to bother them a bit.

Isn't this a titmouse? Regardless - sweet photo, great detail.
Chickadee! Not titmouse.

Love the pure simple lines and capture of this, not fussy at all and this is refreshing to see. 9 for the elegant lines you have produced.

Very nice background to capture this little guy. And the diagonal really works well.

Very nice chickadee. Good detail and lighting. Background may be a bit tall but it look sgreat behind him. Bumping up 1.

So cute. Maybe a teensy bit too much empty space at top but the colours are great, very clear and sharp too.
