I baited a moss covered log with some peanuts and sunflower seeds, hoping the nuthatch would turn up. I wasn't disappointed...

Re: Nuthatch
You have done well there and a good pose and eye, background and nice perch. The blue background looks a little un natural, I would be tempted to change the hue and desaturate it and it would also look better with the peanut cloned out of his mouth

Re: Nuthatch
Thanks to all for the positive comments.
Stan... good constructive criticism (as always). The background is my dark green garage door, which seems to have some blue/turquoise pigment in the paint which gets picked up when the sun shines on it. It does make the subject stand out very well, but you're right, it does look a bit unnatural. Is this any better?

Re: Nuthatch
Both great images but the 2nd one with adjustments as per Stans comments really makes a difference. Very nice indeed.

Re: Nuthatch
I made the comment about the background as I had assumed it was the sky and I sometimes get the odd looking colours myself. As its a garage door it is still a bit in your face so the edit and minus the peanut is much better
