Lovely setting, Jon. The worm in the beak and the head turn towards the flower it pretty cool.

Not sure if it is a little steep, but I like it lots. What really balances the frame very nicely is the flower.
Nice work!

Great pose, beautiful perch with flower, and the worm tops it off nicely. I might only wish (to borrow a page from John R.'s book) for a little variation in the bg.

Nice image Jonathan, the bird has a good head turn and is nicely balanced by the blossom. The caterpillar is the icing on the cake. I like the oof leaves and the clean background but am intrigued by the colour, is it a well out of focus brick wall?

David 10/10, it is! This perch was placed just by the nesting box - took about 20 sec once I had the image I removed it. I didn't want to risk putting up a back drop, though on reflection I may have been able to do something without disturbance - eg a sheet of camo material about 20' back would have done it.

Love the perch, the bird, and especially the worm! I haven't calibrated in a little while, so this might just be me, but I'd bring the shadows up and sharpen the bird just a touch more.

Really like this one a lot. I would clean up the fresh break just to the left of the bird but that's just a nit pick on my part.

A very pleasing image, The flower adds a nice touch to the perch. A good head turn and an extra bonus on the worm.

I like the catch, perch, pose and composition. I would clone out the little piece of a leaf on our right just above the perch. Well done Jonathan.

Lovely image well balanced. Love the head angle and the overall details in the photo. I agree about the black been a bit too dark, I may just bright up the image a tad bit.
