Captured this juv wagtail whilst photographing Great Crested Grebe at my local loch yesterday.

Thanks for having a look

Wonderful IQ. Extremely pleasing soft light. Just a bit tight in the frame IMO and I might add a little more room on the right.

Lovely IQ, pose and eye contact. I like the size and placement in the frame. I like that the feet are visible and the nice water BG is a good match for this bird. Very minor point, but I'd evict the oof grass touching the legs. Nice work.

Nice pose, head turn and with lovely light. I find it a tad close to the edge on the right, do you have more pixels to recompose? in any case, this is a very nice image.

Excellent image , sharp and nicely lit and posed. However the image serves as reminder of a bad evening I had today when I chanced upon a juv yellow wag in Manchester city centre. I saw a bird by the river waiting for parents to feed. 'That bird is going nowhere' I said to myself. I went down some steps to get closer to the bird only to find some giggling girls following me and wondering what I was doing...yes they saw the bird and you can probably guess the rest.

Super shot of this chirpy little chap, the pose is just about right, my only suggestion is that it is perhaps just a little large in the frame.
