Wonderful soft light and excellent detail. I love these little birds.

A very nice image.

You nailed this one David.

The bird is great. I'd give some thought to toning down the perch to keep it from detracting from the rest of the image.

David, I like the pose on the bird. I would prefer that the branch was not cut off. Sweet shot.

Nicely done, David. Good use of flash to balance the light on the bird against the bright background.
