 I like the first one because of its 'natural' setting.  The bird blends
 in surprisingly well with the twigs and branches.

Thanks


 Pumpkin on a Stick' doesn't do a lot for me - unless I'm missing

No, just throwing it out there.:-)

I don't really get the title on the last one. ??
I like the photos of the jays.  We've been feeding them too.
They beat the squirrels to the peanuts.

 I like them, but better framing would make them more effective. You could 
 improve the frame on that last one with a major crop.

I agree with the framing, it happens pretty fast though. I should have
