Another one of the C. Yellowthroats I saw at "The Hook". I love hearing them and then letting them find me!

Well, you certainly nailed the focus on this one Sharon. Stunning detail on this beautiful warbler. Nice perch and it gave you a good look as well. Most of the BG is great but the right detracts some with is busy-ness. Well composed and exposed. All in all a delightful image.

Well Done Sharon,
The mix of BG adds interest and pulling the eye contact from the black features is excellent. Detail and perch first rate.

Very nice feather detail and color on the larger version and I like the black mask over the eye, way to go.

Super detail, Sharon. The additional habitat works well. Wouldn't change anything.

Very smart little bird, Sharon. The fine feather detail is excellent and super sharp too, very nicely done.

Love it. I like the mix of BGs. Super detail on the eye area where it counts. Well done.

Like the others, I like this a lot. My minor suggestion is to make the bird smaller in the frame as it is a small bird after all.

A first rate image IMO. Nice detail; excellent exposure on both the yellow and black.

Tack sharp, great details. It is a beautiful image. Personally I prefer a 'not-so-tight' cropping. Well done !

Excellent job on the exposure. The feather detail in the larger photo is great. I'd like a bit more room around the cyt, especially in front and above.
