I also like the top image best. It has a wider range of color. I like how the color tone at the base of the top bird's tail match the tone of the branch he's sitting upon. The layers of feathers unfold with colors of browns, greys, and reds.

I like how the lower bird's chest lightens to the underbelly just 10% to 15% darker up the scale of the snow.

It's a richer image. Nice work.
