Fine set, but #2 is particularly striking (nice angles).

Now I really like that The contrast between the almost delicate birds and the gnarly wood they are on really appeals

Yes, number 2 from the first set, and this final image are both fantastic!
On this last one the in-focus bits of the wood are so interesting, and the robin so bitingly sharp, I would consider just cropping out the nuthatch altogether.
Number 1 is a bit soft, and number 4 looks like too much of a crop. 3 is also good, but 2 is similar and a better shot. What is that in it's beak?

Numero deux definitely has that 'Je ne sais quoi!'
The nuthatch is such a difficult bird to photograph, and the quality of the image is so high, that I feel compelled to ask what lens was used and if you number an experienced taxidermist amongst your friends

Great addition that last shot - unique is not too strong a word. I wouldn't crop out anything - Robin shots are 10 a penny but a Nuthatch and a Robin face to face ? One in a million.

lol i use the tamron 70 200 , and i'm pretty patient which helps , has for whats in its mouth sun flower seeds , the robin and nuthatch were right between the food think the robin won i tried using the 55 -300 on the k-r but it seemed to hunt like a mad thing. Really need a bit more length though any recommendations much appreciated
