Still trying with these Warblers hard little devils to get, not sure if the gorse in the background spoils the image.

Love the perch and BG, as well as the singing pose.

Wonderful composition with the angle of the perch and excellent detail on the larger version, well done.

Looks excellent to me. Nice pose, perch and BG. Larger version really shows off the details. :smile:

A great effort Karen. Really like the BG myself. A very nice comp with a great perch and bird. I like the signing pose and the nice detail visible in the larger version. Well done as usual.

Love the parted beak and pose, great complimentary diagonal perch AND BG..
No, the "gorse" doesn't spoil the image IMO. Techs look excellent, nice & sharp! :toast:
