He was yelling at a red-bellied woodpecker who wouldn't give up his spot on the peanut feeder.

Beautiful and I can't stop looking at it. I don't know what you did to it, but it works wonderfully.

Sing for your supper!!!

This is so charming. I love these little guys. Every time I see an image such as this, it makes me realize I need a better zoom. LOL

I'll have to try that sometime ;)

You did a great job processing this.

Its just that the other layers sit over the top and overpower it so the effect isn't at all bad. It does contribute some pop to the color.

Great color and detail. Funny, with that background, this looks like a studio setup. Lovely light.

That is beautiful. I love the detail in the bird and the subtlety of the background.

This is fantastic! Very well done. This has free study written all over it. My very, very nitpicky remark... there's a tiny bit of snow in the lower left corner that I think needs cloned out. It's really not that big of a deal, but pulls my eye down there after I've noticed it once. Doesn't detract from the fantastic image, but one of those things voters seem to tear us up for.

Wonderful bird, it looks almost like a painting! Nice quiet background. Perhaps you should clone that small snow part in the left bottom away.
