Paul, beautiful fine detail here and I love the head-on eye contact. Nice BG and - HUG! - claws!
Not so sure about the light OOF branch - I think I'd personally clone it out, then leave a lillte less room on the right and more on the left.

Excellent job on the focus and dof, Paul. I like the bg and the pose. The extra bright branch is unfortunate, and I'd be tempted to play with removing it.

Paul, you captured some wonderful detail on the warbler here. I like the colors in the background but the bright, OOF twig is a bit of a distraction.

Very nice feather detail and I like the head on look, too bad the branches have such right highlights but you get the shot when you can, way to go.
