what a great shot Sandy, I love the baby pose with cute head turn, background and the perch helped a lot to complete stunning picture, another great work!

Poor little resigned guy! Doesn't anyone here know he needs food? LOL! Really good pose and attitude. The light seems harsh, but the whites are mostly under control. Good processing!

I like his crouched position under the lichen branch! Very sweet!

cool pose and branches, Sandy. the bottom feels a bit tight on the virtual tail, but looking at the size of the perch branch, maybe we don't want a lot more of that either, it could get kind of heavy.

Very nice, Sandy. Good framing and nice background. We've watched our Hairys pull suet from the feeder and stuff it in the kid's mouth; the kid is too dumb to get it himself. The other striking thing is how good the kids look, sleek and shiny, while the parents are bedraggled and ratty looking.

Cool shot Sandy. Love the moss and the colors overall with nice detail in the feathers and soft background.
