I really like the last one. That's my fav. It really shows off the color on his back, plus the color is nicely saturated.

Great captures Denis with fantastic lighting. As a birder, I find these kind of loose compositions with habitat included are more visually pleasing!!!

thank you ruhikant.
i agree .the compositions, with rule of thirds applied make for a more pleasing product. i photographed birds for 5 years before starting macro,and learned a few thinks along the way.
