The chick pulls down to the nest floor till mom gives up the next meal.
Good feeding action, light and detail.
A difficult crop though. Maybe tighter to just take in the adult's legs?
Also maybe remove the stems from the youngster's head.
Nice behavior image,, I would go full instagram square crop, take off the top.
Behavior aspect of this one is solid. Mom looks very serious here. Light was very nice.
Nicely framed. A bit off the left would not hurt. Then you could remove what's left of the intruding branch lower left. You are just a bit short on the chick's head angle ...
with love, artie
this image shows the feeding behavior from a natural history point of view well but as art it doesn't work for me. both HA's are somewhat awkward and the image is somewhat cluttered, both birds look a touch soft as if there was heat shimmers or too much humidity...
If I were shooting at this location I would get frustrated and leave in less than 10 minutes, it looks very tough to pull a keeper frame here with all the nest clutter, steep angle and patchy BG's unless you had a 20 ft ladder to go on top... must be fun watching them though :)

I agree with a bit more off the left, and bummer on that branch touching the youngster's head. Good behaviour, nice light
