    These little energetic puffballs can be difficult to photograph! This individual responded to audio, but did not land on the perch I had setup for it. This'll do though.

    This is lovely Daniel. I love the complimentary BG and the suitably sized perch.
    Light is great.
    I wish this pouffed up sweetie and been more parallel to the sensor. If mine I would clone or crop out the little bit of perch on the bottom of the frame to the right .

    Nice to see this little plumped up wren. The pose is nice and the background killer. The light looks nice as well. Details look nice.

    Nice light on this one. I like the perch and BG. I love the view of the claws on the perch. Great look at the eye. TFS

    I think a vertical would look good here.

    Nice capture of what can be, a very shy bird to capture Dan. Great to have the image showing the feet and those almost 'ice pick' talons.

    Maybe a fraction off the bottom, otherwise superb. I love the 45 degree pose. Your images never fail to put a smile on my face.

    Great capture of a fidgety little bird. Love the puffy pose, light, BG.
