She looks proud. Not crazy about the background though.

Very cute. Some photos when you look at them you think there was probably a better moment missed but here this shows the critical moment between tiny bird and big bad peanut. Ok I'm being a little silly but I do like it.

Bird Of Prey

I like the simplicity of the shapes. It gives it a rawness that lends itself well to conveying an animal (basic) instinct that is suggested here.

Nice capture. Almost everything I like about it is provided by the bird though (i.e. attractiveness/uniqueness). The composition and POV suggests hastiness rather than craftmanship. Although you did get the shot so that's important. The thing is your title suggests more than what is delivered here and why I expected more. Perhaps a lower POV would have captured that story better (i.e. show more of the surrounding elements) and at the same time given this composition more harmony with the subject.

Just my opinion of course. It's a good photo. I just think it can be better. Good luck.

Well I liked it and gave it a 9. It's well done and is unique, something rarely treasured here.

After reading your notes I now feel cheated. I want to give your "statement" photo a 1 for not being an actual statement. You're turning into a ribbon hog with no priniciples! ;)

Oh and nice photo. Just wanted to say something nice at the end.

Ya I saw that. I was wondering if it was an acronym for something besides tally marks. Btw, you need an icon for getting a ribbon with a sub-6 score. By my count this makes four. ;)
