Difficult dappled light. Good job. Sort of a posterior view, but I like the image. 7

Mute Swans. Tilted view works pretty well. Good ripples and reflections. Pretty good control of the white highlights, which is not easy in sunlight. 7

Northern Gannet. Fine image showing lots of bird behavior. 9

Could be from somewhere other than North America, which is fine. If this bird is from North America, then it's likely a juvenile Black-crowned Night-Heron. Love the eye and the foot. 7

Exotic bird to me. Love the behavior of the insect capture. The eye catch glint is sharp, which carries the image. 7

Male Ruby-Throated Hummingbird
by karenk

Comment:
On images like this, I like the slight motion blur of the wings because it denotes motion. Super job on the sharpness of the eye, head feathers and gorget. We don't have rub-throated HBs in Colorado. We do have broad-tailed HBs. Those have a gorget which is more red. I checked the id books and apps. Your more orange-red colors are accurate. 7

House Finch

Comment:
Nice peek-a-boo shot by the male House Finch. Good selective focus and superb eye-catch glint. i'd sure like to have seen more of the body and wings, but very good as presented. 7

The Assassin

Comment:
Outstanding bird behavior presentation. Some electronic noise on the lower breast which distracts somewhat. Not enough field marks for me to id the bird, but I note the Assassin beetle. Overall, very nice effort. 7
