Happy Birds is the most musically sophisticated, while being relevant to the theme. Hallucinogenic plants is both relevant, and a solid tune. Acuity is good too - just the regular drum action seems a little too heavy. It could have been pulled back.

Other honourable mentions include Bosque de Ema and Transformation in the Woods. Both have interesting, or at least satisfying instrumentation, if some flaws in execution.

Overall, a good round.

Verdancy - Great continuum and buildup. I really liked this one for its calming atmosphere. Reminds me of taking a walk down a forest, so it fits the theme well for me.

OHC 348 Putrid Forest - It feels mysterious and edgy. Good tunes! To me, it felt like it could have sounded more urgent? But overall really nicely put together.

Happy Birds - There are parts that sound really happy and colourful. I thought the intro was interesting because it doesn't seem to connect with the main part of the music when heard on its own. The only thing that threw me off was how dissonant it started getting near the end, and I thought that sort of detracted the composition. But it just happens briefly, so it still got my vote. :D

Honourable mentions:

>_<, Sicks Treengs, Let Our Love Grow

No real justification for these, except I guess they all sounded nice? Although I didn't expect to enjoy "Let Our Love Grow" as much as I did this week. The beginning shakiness of the vocals was too amusing, but I liked the lyrics and the vocals improved as the song progressed.

Acuity: fantastic work. Loved the ambience and the piano.

Forty-Two: this turns dark in a most spectacular way.

Level99: I really enjoyed this, vocal entries are super tough, great job!
