I'm with sulamk on the tail. Even so, this is very nice. Love the lighting on the head and breast, the details in the feathers, the position of his head, the blurred background that brings out the tan in the feathers. Very, very nice.

What a lovely bird shot, the only quibble I have is that you cut his tail off.

This is such a good bird photo! The lighting was just right to get the detail in his eye. Very nice.

Lovely- the lighting on him is so interesting - we can see it coming in through the trees. He has the tiniest bit of snow on the tip of his beak - how cute!

One of the best bird pix I've ever seen!
He's down in the nitty gritty doing what lil birdies do...

I wish you'd post the settings for the photo.
