I love this one, it's a beautiful photo and the bw treatment works really well with it and the blurry wings are just gorgeous and the lines and the shapes just work.

Eeek I'd be worried about that, especially with my cat. Ooof..

Gorgeous parrot there though, makes me wish I could have one as a pet but with my current cat.. not an option.

This one feels a bit too sharp for me, the colours don't quite pop and the bride structure sort of merges with the orange/brown of the land.

It's not a bad photo by any means though.

These are pretty, the flowers feel very 3d so good job with the lighting to get that effect

Gorgeous sunset and shapes, however the photo feels ever so slightly lopsided for me. I think it's that the strong and simple central composition makes me want the sun to fit into that frame and be centered as well.

Dune Fence at Winter's End

I really liked the thumbnail but clicking through it's a little bit too sharp for me I think.

The shadows and the fence are gorgeous and the composition really works but the texture of the sand doesn't really work for me, I'd want it to be smoother instead of the one dimensional sandpaper look.

It's still a solid photo though. Also I am very well aware that the exact quality of the sand isn't under your control. A slightly different post processing might have changed the effect a bit though.

An unrecoverable error has occured...

Dying Tree

Awww I'm sorry to hear about the tree.

As for the picture I think even that a shallower dof would be interesting to isolate out more a part of the texture rather than having it be a bit overwhelming as it is. I.e the eye is sort of pulled all over the place. It depends as well on how close your lens can focus.
