I love the feel of this one. I wish you would have cropped out the yellow line, my eye is drawn away from the wonderful bird. (not voting, just commenting)

Love the shot, but the haloing around the wings is unfortunate. Nice color choice. (not voting, just looking)

What a great capture!! (in more ways than one :) I wish you would have skipped the border just so it could have been a little bigger to really appreciate it.

The feet on this are a hoot! They look so awkward coming down. Great capture. (just looking, not voting)

Ok, since I'm not voting in this challenge, and it's driving me up the wall, I'm awarding bluebirds to my 10 favorite shots. I'll post them in the posthumous awards thread after the challenge is over, but I just couldn't wait until then!

Ok. This one has to have a bluebird simply because of how bizarre it is!! Is that a rat?! And flying over a graveyard? What a find! Here's a bluebird:

I love the puffs of clouds in this shot. I would have cropped up just a little from the bottom left to get rid of the little black edge. (not voting, just commenting)

I so wish there was a head on this bird! It's a scream that it doesn't show, and that makes it interesting to begin with. However, I really want to see the head, simply because it's so incredibly difficult to get a decent shot of one of these little guys. The focus is beautiful on this. It's almost the perfect capture. Nicely done. :) (not voting, just commenting)
