Love the berry in the mouth. Some sort of wren, I presume?

Excellent and timing, and additional marks for showing something of the bird's habitat and behaviour. Bumped to 9.

Beautiful portrait - that berry is a great focal point that pulls me straight to the bird's head/ beak/ eye.

Nicely captured moment, and tack sharp. The in focus twig behind the head is distracting, but you already know that. 7

Nice clarity. Wonder whether bringing the head/beak further into the frame, even if it meant more chopped tail, but does still work as is.

Nice, I like the action catching it eating. Focus is a little soft, but OK. colors, contrast, saturation all good. Nice capture!

Other than the crop being a little too centered for me, this is great! ice feather details and you got the light on the birds face nicely.

Those natural moments are all too difficult to capture - but you managed it. Nice detail and bokeh. 8.

Nice, nice detail. I can even see the little tongue!

Fantastic pose and you've nailed the focus. Interesting depth to the background as well. I don't mind the tail being clipped - I think the balance of the shot would be upset if the framing went out right.

Good detail, nice presentation. The bokeh and setting contribute well to this.

Perfect capture with the berry in its mouth. Such a clear photo. I think this is a Mockingbord? We don't have those around here.
