One of my very favorite birds, ad gone missing at my feeders this year. Sweet shot- perhaps a tad bright in the whites. Interesting composition-shows how small these birds are. I could see a different crop too-horizontal with most of the stump removed and a bit off the top, to feature the nuthatch a bit more. But I like this too!

Interesting perch, with insect carvings, and nice detail. The perch and Nuthatch would benefit from a slight reduction in brightness. Nice image.

The BG with specular highlight looks great and I love the perch with the worm/larva tunnels.
The whites on the nuthatch are hot. I would try to tease some detail out of the whites and would reduce the brightness of the perch slightly.
I like the spider webbing.
Nice image!

Nice perch beauty bird, nice background. I would have put it a bit higher in the frame.
