Nice one, Matt. Good detail and the open beak adds a nice touch.

Beautiful, Matt. A classic Nuthatch pose with the open beak adding a unique and very appealing twist. Excellent detail and I like the comp.

Very cool classic Nuthatch pose Matt. The open beak adds a lot IMO. Clean bg and the tree makes a nice anchor for the image. Great work!

A very nice image Matt. The Nuthatch just pops against your background. Nice perch. The detail is just superb.
