I like both of these. The tight crops add interest. The imperfections
are minor and don't diminish the impact of the pics.
Thanks for sharing.

Like Bruce says, the first is a bit better but they both offer a
different perspective on photographing the birds. The sharp eyes and
cut off parts add to the impression of being very close. Regards,

Christian,
First shot is pretty nice. I don't mind the washed out sky. The
cropped tail is too bad, but doesn't ruin the image. I like that you
are presented something a little different in a bird picture. The
image almost gives me a feeling of being close to this bird, more like
a pet or something.
The second one is good too, but doesn't grab me as much.
I do appreciate you sharing your efforts. You provide inspiration and
ideas for me that I am thankful for.
Keep up the good work!
