This is a Christmas present I drew for my tenant. She is an avid bird-watcher. Took about 10 hours total, many layers of color.

I like bluejays! This is colored well and I like how the markings on his feathers came out.

It takes a lot of layers to build up the colors.

Great job. I like this a lot. I wish I could draw anything. I can make lop-sided circles (also known as ellipses I guess).

The bird was so captivating I didn't even look at the background. I think it works well. You have a good sensibility with birds. Not everyone can depict this type of subject matter well. This should be a portfolio piece for sure.

I love the little jay, Adam! Your birds are always done so nicely. I don't think the background looks rushed, if anything it looks very simple and doesn't draw your eye away from the actual subject

I kinda rushed it, was going to leave it white but decided not to.

The bluejay is really good, the background looks a bit rushed. I do that too sometimes if I have spent ages doing the main subject just stick a quick background on it.
for the bluejay
