I remade my old hummingbird pattern (oval shape) to shadowbox, which one do you like more?

I like the round one much better

Both are attractive, however for me, I think the tie-breaker of picking one over the other needs to consider the environment (background, lighting, etc.) they will be displayed on. 
(Oh fudge!  I just heard myself, and I'm starting to sound like my wife when it comes to her decorating ideas.)

If there was (a lot) more contrast between the pattern and the bacground, I would like the oval as a wall hanging plaque. 

However that being said if a kick stand was added and a banding/frame added to hide the exposed plywood edges -  like I did your Dolphins -, I would like the square/round for table top standing.

So, there is no real "like one better that the other".  It really depends on how it is finished and where and how it will be displayed.

Since my Lady is a Hummingbird lover, I will probably have to get both of these patterns and make one of each for her to add to her collection.

They are both lovely.  The are different patterns in my mind.

The square shadow box is my favorite.

I love your patterns. I would have to vote for the top one here, but can not take anything away from the  bottom one, as it is one of your fabulous patterns as well

The top one, the square, is the most lovely.
