Wonderful job getting an image of this little guy at all, Claus, particularly such a close one. :toast:

This looks very good at this size Claus. Quite an interesting perch and I like the serious expression on the wren's face. I do wish the bright OOF background stem weren't directly behind the beak.

Very nice image. The bird is sharp, a great perch and good comp. The only thing is the twigs in the background are a bit distracting. You might be able to tone then down some.

Thanks for your nice feedback.

I actually tried to remove the branches, but the result was not so good. So I decided to leave them :wink:
