Three nice shots of a Titmouse, American Goldfinch and House Finch. All have nice details and backgrounds. My only suggestin would be to place some natuaral looking perches near the feeder and this will allow you to shoot birds on those perches.The feeder is OK but you will appreciate the images that much more if your subjects are on natural looking perches. I usually take a large dead branch from a tree and set it up in something like a patio umbrella holder. This way I can take it away if squirrels decide to use is as a highway top the dinner table:D

3 Very nice images. Nice detail.
As mentioned; a more "Natural" element would be beneficial, as would a little more room for the birds to look into..(A little tight Framing)
House Finch my favorite..

Three very nice shots. That 400L is a fine piece of glass. :)
