Show your Bird Portraits

I'm going to submit 3 "winter theme" photos in a local (small Kentucky town) art gallery. It's the kind of thing that only a few will see, so it's nothing special.
I whittled down what I thought might be the best received 5 "winter" photos I have, and wondered what others might think are the best 3 to submit. Since you all here have posted so many beautiful photos (especially of birds, which is why I chose this thread), I was hoping that you might mention which 3 you think might be best received by the public.
Thanks, & cheers!

For me the two standout images are the scarlet bird taking off and the two birds interacting. The first you have got the shutter speed perfect and more importantly, perfect focus on the eyes. The latter I like the moment which tells a story.

Thanks, DistinctlyAverage. I also thought these were the 2 best ones, but I never know what others will think until I ask. I know the eye focus isn't perfect on the "in-flight" one, but as it was an unexpected flight launch I think I'm lucky it was "hopefully acceptable" (if not enlarged too much
).

From my point of view they are all nice. In my mind the two house finches is interesting because of the interaction but stays on 4th place (different people - different taste
)!

Does this mean you like all the other 4 better (including the cat)? I can only submit 3, so I have to pare it down to 3 one way or another.From my point of view they are all nice.

Canada geese standing on the ice down at the local reservoir, November 8th, 2021. These are the first geese I've seen there for weeks. The reservoir was full of blue-green algae this summer and the birds generally kept away.

Such beautiful birds. Great shots!Thanks for all the "Likes", I took too many shots that day and have nearly finished sorting them.
The final results are now in two Albums on flickr:
Some of the more interesting Birds were nackered out by the Friday so they were rested, despite that, still great to spend a day
amongst such incredible Birds. I have had a few Birds in my garden that would react to a whistle and take food of my hands. Its
not such a common sight to have a bird flying straight towards you, same here, the Falconers did whatever we asked them to do,
and repeated it until we had the shots. The light was maybe too hard, but the autumn colours were great.
Cheers Brian
