Ray, I like the position of the bird as well as the separation from the background. The juniper (?) perch seems to frame it nicely.

This is really nice Ray! Love the tones here, and excellent composition and detail on the warbler.

Nice color and detail. Very natural. Just the sort of place I used to see them back in the mid Atlantic states.

Ray, the bird looks very good as does the setting. Love the haughty head angle.

Really nice image with the bird framed nicely and a great background as well. I know it takes a lot of patience and waiting to get this all lined up when these little guys are moving around.

What a beautiful picture you've created here Ray, I love the way the Warbler's pose lines up with the diagonally running perch. The colours throughout are a delight to look at, as is that wonderfully blurred background, very nicely done indeed!

a Beautiful bird on an excellent perch. We get tons of these here in the fall and I never seem to get them on a perch like this. Well done
