I like the open mouth of the left one and the head angle of the second.

Hi Joe, well suited for the theme, and just love the two youngsters begging for their food, whilst the third is totally uninterested. Good DOF on all three, and I cant say I have seen three juvie Green Herons in the same frame. An opportunity well used.

Joe, quite an achievement getting three in a frame and all fairly sharp. I like the poses too and the one-leg stance of the young one on the right of the frame. With so much going on, it must have been a hard one to chose a composition but I think you've achieved this. The only negative for me is the busy background but the opportunity of getting three birds like this was too good to pass up.
