    This was taken at my backyard set-up. The BG is an OOF weeping willow. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

    This is a very nice picture.
    Of a species unknown to me.

    I like this a lot, the beak is a tad OOF, but the shot has personality, which is more important to me.
    They are unappreciated, as are most common backyard birds, lively and fun to watch.
    Yours looks puffed up and cold, a nice photo.

    Excellent image Jim, nice light on the bird, good detail all round, including the whites, and good eye contact. Love the pose and perch with the touch of snow.

    Hi Jim, good light which had shown up the plumage nicely. I like the angled pose, and the snow around the perch adds interest.

    Beautiful bird and image. I particularly like the snow on the perch. Very clean and nice BG by the way.
