Wonderful image Frank
The details a lovely BG and the perfectly placed bird , wonderful all the way
THe open beak and the details on view inside the mouth are also good to see,
the Perch is what i like too, in fact it will make a good photograph without the bird in the frame thats why the complete package is special to me.

Excellent shot!!
Terrific pose, really like perch, wonderful background and nice warm light.
To me the reflection in the eye is just to bright and makes the eye look a tad wierd.
Still an excellent shot.
Well done.

Love the rusty colors throughout this one Frank, lovely markings on this bird captured and singing pose tops it off, perch is interesting and compliments the birds color and like the way it enters the frame diagonally....my only thought would be to tone down the brights in the eye a little

Love the perch and sweet singing pose. I agree about toning down the reflection. Really nice bg

New version with reduced reflection in the eye.

This is superb Frank - love the calling pose and killer thorny perch,
Cheers Greg

Sweet, Frank. Love the bg, perch, and subject with the calling pose.

Very nicely done. Beautiful bird, perch, and BG.

Sweet image Frank. Nice comp, singing pose, perch. I'd be tempted to completely desaturate the blue channel, but all else looks great.

Hi Frank, great setting, great singing pose, and overall nice and sharp. You couldnt have picked a better BG to compliment the little guy if you tried. :w3

Excellent shot, perfect setting and bg! Not to mention the bird itself :-)

Excellent image, love the singing bird, pose, beautiful perch and BG well done.

What a beautiful and classic portrait of this wren, Frank. Nice job toning down the reflection, that definitely improved it. Love all the warm, complementary colors.

Repost looks excellent. Lovely artistic image, singing pose, perch and BG. Colors are excellent.

Very nice Frank and I like the singing pose and the eye on the repost. Techs look great as do the feather details. Well done
