Congratulations to everyone who participated in this theme. More than a few images were strong contenders for winning. And special thanks to Linz for suggesting this theme!

First Place - Sharp-eyed Hummer - Judy Howle
Everything about this one is lovely! The pose, the colors, the feather details... I especially like how the hummer's throat color stands out. Well done, Judy!

Second Place - Tracking - Jackie Schuknecht
I love the depth and softness to the feathers in this, and that piercing gaze is simply mesmerizing. Well done, Jackie!

Third Place - Tie _
