Great perch and pose. The somewhat muted colors throughout work well. Details look pretty good, although shoulder is a touch out from either DOF or just movement. Eye looks nice here. TFS

Love this overall canvas. DOF choice looks perfect for this subject/perch. What is giving the BG that beautiful muted tone and hue? TFS

Lovely shot. Nice detail and exposure, and the BG is sweet.

Looks great to me John, I really like the format and presentation. Exposure looks spot on, details very good indeed.

This is lovely.
I like the soft light and the slightly extended wing.
Nice IQ and very good perch that is a perfect size for the bird.
Too bad the shoulder is out of DOF but doesn't really bother me.

A handsome shot with good pose, perch and bg. DOF noted. I might be tempted to burn the very bottom of the stem, just a bit.

Nice soft light but too much empty space for me, I would go vertical.
