Butch, the first is a little soft to me & the tail merges with the RH edge, otherwise a nice bird shot. I like the way you've positioned the wood in the frame. the second would be a better image without the blank sky the third suffers from a poorly place subject with the inclusion of the extraneous green matter on the RH side & bottom the forth is an interesting concept but I find the execution lacking with the inclusion of the black chunk on the RH edge. I see this as a vertical shot excluding the fence post & about half of the wire fence below the bird & including some of the leaves in the upper left center. I think this image with those components could be a great image. Just my $.01 worth
