Hi Joe, lovely calling pose for the theme, and overall well exposed. The thin perch works well, as does your clean BG. Well captured.

Ahh. My favorite spring bird. Well one of them anyway. Love the calling pose diaganol perch and killer green background. Nice one.

Great view of this male. Pose and action are excellent, and the details look good across the bird - and especially on the feet! Background is money, and the clean perch is nice. I would move
him up in the frame a bit, but that's mostly personal preference.
