    Excellent Jon:

    Good assessment from David, and I concur.

    Nicely captured.

    Hi Jon, nice work, all looks good. My only nit if mine would have been that I wished the bird would have been scratching with the near foot, so the foot would show. Thank you for sharing.

    A lovely shot. Great pose in nice light, fine detail, and the green on the rock is a big plus. Well done.

    Looks great. Love the pose and the composition. The moss on the rock is a nice touch. Nice background as well.

    I'm all about this shot. It's a cool little bird, and the rocky setting is just perfect. The details on the bird are fantastic, particularly on the stationary foot. I'm always looking for sharp eyes AND sharp feet, and this shot checks both
    boxes with gusto. I'd love to see a bit more of that sweet rock if you could move him up in the frame a bit.
