Thanks ant. The backdrop in the first is the greenhouse covering. Should have blurred it or something. The birds are pretty heavy crops, but are a great improvement for me. Long way to go.
Hello Dick, can't go wrong including a flower IMO I agree with ANT which is never a good think but the BG is distracting and maybe more so due to its angle in this shot.
Glad to hear the birds are an improvement for you. Keep at it and let us know what you are doing to get to this point and perhaps we can speed you along a bit!
purdy nice Dick, the junco is nice as is the finch.
Note that you are posting in Adobe RGB colorspace and web browsers
generally need sRGB conversion. Adobe RGB is a print colorspace.
Colors will be altered for many viewers.
Both show a lot of noise in the bg, but the colors are a nice touch.
Here is noise reduced on bg and not the finch....also toned him down a bit.
May or may not be to your taste, just an option
Looking good

Dick, I like your bird shots, but agree with the others here, and think they could be sharpened up a bit. I think the sparrow shot has wonderful colors!!! Nice work!!!
