I photographed this bird locally a while back and went for a different crop and tweaked the color settings a bit.

I remember this one from before. Great bird's HA, foot, singing pose.
Love the comp of flowers, just perfect. And the bee....
You are the king. Lovely light, singing pose, colors, perch, composition, detail and BG.
Big, huge congratulaitons!
Axel;
Excellent as noted. Pose, singing, bee, BG, sharpness, exposure.
Truly the only thing that caught my eye, I would be curious if you had the crotch where the two branches came together, whether it might 'complete' the perch, and not lead the eye out of the frame.
This is a small point, but the rest is so good.

This just makes me so jealous. Beautiful pose, perch, BG, colors and light. Did you use audio? Well done.
Axel Bhai, the pic seems to be lost, pls check..
Finally for 6th attempt the image is downloading. :)
Very nice image and setup. Lovely pose and I like the bg very much.

Lovely calling pose, and I like the settings. I remember the others from this series very well. Just a suggestion, how about coming in slightly from both sides, and adding to the top.
Axel, I remember this series also. I like how you captured it standing on the thistle w/ a nice open beak pose. Beautiful BG. Lighting looks nice and I agree w/ Randy regarding the fork of the plant, but see your point on the square crop.
Such a beautiful setting Axel, the colours, BG and loved that sing pose... congrats..
Nice pose and BG colors. I like the perch. Is this a large crop?
A fine image indeed, I like the singing pose, gorgeous flowers/perch and smooth background. Well done Axel.
