I noticed two house wren were busy near their nest hole and this stump was not too far away. Before long, he hopped up onto the stump and sung a few notes.

Very nice, sharp, good details and exposure, nice pose and BG. Loi
Nice singing pose, BG has an appealing shade of green. Sharp as posted. Light looks a bit harsh - reducing the contrast would surely help here. I'd also have preferred more room for the composition. Still a fine image, and you did well to anticipate the action!
Fine detail and great singing pose. Well captured. Some contrast reduction sounds like a good suggestion. I'd also get rid of the oof object in the extreme lower left corner.
I agree completely with the above comments, and echo Bill's about addressing that OOF object in the LLC. Bird looks great, nice BG, but the light does look a little harsh.
