Tripod in a canoe, ISO 400 +0.3 1/2000 sec f5, crop for composition, NR to background, USM mask for contrast to head of darter.
All comments welcome.

nice pose, good exposure. looks like the focus was on the right bird. I wish they were looking at each other which would make the interaction stronger

Thanks Arash I agree entirely, in fact I produced an image exactly as you suggested but the problem is the bird on the left is just a smidgen out of focus and consequently it looked as though I did rearrange it!

maybe combine to two frames and make a nice composite?

Interesting seeing the 2 of them in the frame. Terrific light and BG. Your right bird is so nice and full of details. Not a bad idea to try a composite for fun.
