Hey Buddy, No Trespassing!

great location. i assume you chose this take due to the sqawking one in the foreground. i want to change something about the airborne ones, but you obviously didn't have a choice at that point. maybe clone out the one closest to the land? after the challenge i would definitely photoshop him closer to the sign. there seems to be a bit of haloing around everything in the sky...i don't care-8

nice lighting and focus. i wish there was a way bottom left to compliment the black top right

What!

i really like how you captured the water at the top to compliment the water at the bottom. perhaps you could have taken it from an even lower pov to move the bird up in the frame and still get the water at the top. i wish you woud have cloned out the fence-6

Feeding Time

nice focus. would have rather seen the other hand in the shot (to show feeding) and the cropping of the thumb. the thumb competes to much with the birds face and pulls the eye off of the page-6

Nesting.......

i see some wild possibilities for this composition. Mostly involving getting real close to the hole...but that wouldn't be very cool for mom with the flash. so it leaves a bit to be desired. the artifacts around the bird are tough. the perch is uncomfortably out of focus and the excrement is a bit unsightly-4

Yellow-headed Blackbird

really like your composition. nice job of focusing on the bird through the reeds. I don't know if it was your camera letting you down or intended, but the noise makes it feel more like a painting than a photo. i like it-8

nice looking duotone. i wish the weed wasn't growing out of his head and you could better see the face of the one on the right. i like the idea of the mom in the background-5

beautiful tones. wish there was just a bit more space behind the tail-8

Seagull Bread Run

Comment:
the wingspan of the main gull really compliments the rock formation. if he could have angled himself even more...that would have been art. i would have cloned out the other one. colors are a bit muted...seagulls face is a blown out, but it still works for me due to the shapes, and interesting background textures-6

cool capture. wish the colors were a bit more saturated. looks like the camera had some trouble with fringing on the tail feathers. i wish the there was closer proportion between sky above and below.. so i guess i would have liked to see a tighter crop.-6
