I like the way this bird is posing and seeing his face like this. He is very cute. The background is just enough to have interest but not take away from him.

Susan, this is absolutely beautiful photo! Nicely captured, cropped and adjusted! Many details of the bird. Good light and shadows. A little frame (as your personal signature) is awesome! Well done! You have a great day!

He must have had a hearty , stomoch-filling breakfast! He looks well fed! Nice shot! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

nice show of the bird, but you have to take in mind of what is in the background, the branch on the right looks like it is growing from the bird head and this is a distraction

thanks for sharing

    Galia,
    Thanks for your review.
    Unfortunately these small birds don't always perch in the best locations regarding the background.

Pretty little blue tit with a drop of water on its head,well,placed in the frame facing forward but it turned its head allowing a nice side profile of the face I like the open beak! This is well focused, the image is clear, exposure is well managed in the sunlight, colors and tones are natural, nice detail in feathers, face and beak, good eye contact. Well composed and presented!

    It's not uncommon to see them hanging upside down as they peck at insecets on flowers berries & the Seed feeders.

A beautiful little bird with his beak open in song. I like this perspective and the way he turned his head to give you a profile. Very nicely cropped with beautiful colors.

Nice photo and decent composition. The details are very nice. It does look a bit dull for me, but maybe that is how you wanted it. It is really a beautiful bird and thanks so much for sharing. Good luck and keep sharing.

    Thanks a million for your review .
    What exactly do you mean by dull?
    The colours are natural in dappled sunlight and shadow. Dublin is not in the Tropics.

    As in dull I mean the colors seem a bit muted. Maybe taken through a closed window?
    You are from Dublin. I love that country. I once spent 5 weeks in Dunmore East with some friends. I long to go back sometime again. You got an awesome country.

    The sunlight was very bright so I had to darken the picture to reduce the burnt out spots.

Looks like he is calling his friends to the bar to have a drink with him! Your fine full and central composition grants us an enjoyable look at your thirsty visitor. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well taken!
