Love the pose, the habitat, the color palette, and especially the stare at the bug on the left. Critical fine detail seems a bit lacking; I don't know if a round of sharpening would help.

Lovely shot and the beetle larva (???) for added interest, a really eye catching shot.

Great pose. Great bug. Sharp. Of all the reeds only the light-toned one that goes through the bill bugs me. Was the RAW file under-exposed?

Superb IQ, Holger. Like everything about this image including the impending launch for the bug on the reed.

Hi Holger, great leaning pose across the frame ready to catch his breakfast. The warbler is nicely separated from the reed BG, and I do like the earthy colours.
