This is from last year, these are frequent visitors to my feeder. 90% of my images of these birds are this pose or similar. 50% crop.

Sweet, classic nuthatch pose. The image held up incredibly well to the crop.

Killer Bg and pose. The head looks a little soft to me. Great shot.

The quintessential Nuthatch pose! :) The background is awesome and I think this held up well for a 50% crop!

I like this a lot! It does seem to have a slight color cast to it. The crop held up well for web use.

Love the pose and appears sharp enough to me. There does appear to be a slight cyan color cast.

Great shot but a bit tight on the crop for me. Just a bit more on the bottom and right, but its just my preference.
