Nice assembly of some good looking birds. I wish that the bottom left bird was not there because of the overlap and it also seems quite shadowed compared to the others. Without it I think a vertical or square crop would have been nice. I also like the obvious attentiveness of the top two birds.
Yes to interesting and the color looks fine but this one does not work for me with the lower right bird turned away and in partial shade.... And the ax marks on the perch are not good :) SH and EXP look good; the whites on the breast of the raised wings bird could be toned down a bit.

A nice gathering of birds. I like the poses on the right three and do wish the one on the left were faced towards us but 4 birds together is tough to get w/ 4 great poses. I'd crop some off the left if it were mine.
