Hi Bernd. Are these male and female or adult and juvenile? I might place the birds a little higher in the frame, and I wish we had better eye contact with them. Thanks for posting!

Hi Doug,

as I know it's an adult and a juvenile, but I am not an expert of african birds.

Hi Bernd,
Looks like the light was a bit harsh....high in the sky as the shadows are directly below or on the underside....but you handled it pretty well. Interesting having the 2 birds on the perch and agree with Doug on the angles. In the field.....a bit more room in front and down....as they are looking that way......would only emphasize their pose even more.
