Hi Dan, nice capture of the osprey bringing more nesting material. would prefer more bottom nest if possible and front face view of other osprey. BG is a plus. TFS

Not feeling this one Dan.
The BG smoothing looks overdone to my eye and there is a halo around the bottom bird.
The entire image feels overprocessed.
I like the pose and vegetation in the talons of the right hand bird but wish the rear bird was not there.
I would also trim the little stick poking up from the nest by the talons and moss.
