    Nice one ! I think the yellow is a little bite 'to'' hot in my eyes. But I like the peach and head angle. So if you could tone down the yellows you have a very nice capture in my eyes.

    Loverly COMP. Yellows on side of neck a bit hot and perhaps a bit too much flash.... Lots to do with the YELLOWs to save them. See in the ER. Perfect head angle for the facing pose.

    This is lovely!
    The perch really compliments the warbler

    Beautiful subject, and I love the perch and BG. I agree with the yellow comments. Although I like the pose, I'd personally prefer a bit more profile view with at least a bit of the tail showing. Great job overall, Chas!

    Gorgeous shot of this beautiful little bird. HA looks just right to me. I was going to comment on the nice flash work until I read the above comments. Still looks good to me, although I can see Artie's point about the yellow. What were the flash details? I'd love to capture one of these guys -- I've only seen them high in the treetops, and then not often.
