    Going thru last years files. This was taken at Gatorland. So cute and there were two of them. I like the funny stare and the fuzz not to mention those feet.

    Love the expression, fuzz, and the white knuckles holding on for dear life. I would like to see the colors a bit more saturated for more pop. Can you blur the BG a little? He would probably be flying before you could get a clean BG.

    Love this little fuzzball. I like the vertical and love the way he is gripping that grass. I think your chicks needs some more pop and an + in saturation would be helpful. I would also consider sharpening at least his face a little more. I would personally leave the BG as is b/c these little guys are so much a part of their environment.

    How cute, and very vulnerable looking. Except for the OOF diagonal twig in ULC I like the BG as is. I agree with more saturation, sharpness, and perhaps also more warmth to the WB. Having pointed your lens down a bit would have helped the comp too IMO (less room above, more below). I love the "death grip" this guy has on the reed!
