    I understand the concern about the busy background in #1, but sometimes you don't have much say in the matter.
    Personally I prefer #1 - tack sharp and I like the placement of the birds. Nice to have male and female in one frame showing their differences. I also like the different stances of the two birds. The shape and lines of the male are terrific.
    Really enjoyed these.
    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Thanks so much. I know what you mean about the background, but it was the best angle I had. If only! Best, Pam

    Thanks so much. I'm hoping for some chicks soon! Of course, if it keeps acting like winter here, they may decide life in the egg is preferable! Best, Pam
