(music) home! Home on the tree..!"..lol..oh I couldn't resist. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot of these feathered cowpokes is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye for the great job overall.

It's great that you were able to photograph three of these birds up in a tree! Cowbirds come to my backyard once in a while but I usually see them on the ground underneath the feeders. Excellent light, exposure, and sharpness.

They are also what is known as a brood parasite, laying their eggs in other birds nests and either throwing out the nesters eggs or having the young when hatched throw out the other nestlings. A very nice shot that shows the cowbirds in great detail.

This is a lovely image not only for that moment in time but making the most of the situation! The blue backdrop is ideal this really shows off the birds, they seem to pop out from the background! I like the triangular compositon of the three birds and the slightly comical feel in the way that they seem to be looking at each other!

Great focus--you can see all the feathers and catchlight in their eyes. The colors are natural looking and your composition is very nice. You can also see that the tree leaf buds are getting ready to pop open

Nice shot Grace! I love this composition of 3 birds. It looks like the female bird on the left has a higher position. She's like a princess or a quinn.
This photo shows the season. The blue early spring sky is awesome! The image is sharp, balanced and perfectly adjusted. Great job!!!
