Hi Nipper #6 is the chaffinch.
A really lovely set - you should be pleased with these. Agree with Jim 49 - would be nice if you included some Exif details.
The re-posted #1 and #6 are the best two for me too.

RE: The tail feather comment .. bit tight in the frame, you have cut off the tail feathers (or is it like that in the photo?).
i have did'nt notice These all taken with tamron 70 200 not great light and in shade under trees so a bit of a struggle i think my noise software removes data?

A very competent set of images, I agree with the other comments re the saturation, you either have the camera set to "bright or vivid" or your been to heavy handed with the saturation slider in photoshop. my bodies are set to "natural" I tried the bright setting once but the images looked like I taken them around Chernobyl.
I think the Chaf is the best of the bunch, despite the radioactive branch his colouration isn't that bad, the redone Robin is a vast improvement, great background on that one too.

That chaffinch with the tail is gorgeous Nipper - and just reinforces my decision to make this lense the next one to add to the armoury. At half the price of the Sigma it's superb.

Mmmmm, Chaffinch is excellent.
Would have been well happy to have taken either the reprocessed Robin or re-tailed Chaffinch myself .. infact I'm extremely jealous now.
Just one little nitpick .. branch tip bottom right needs to be cloned out.
You should submit both to the PPG.
