This is cute! I'm just not sure if the baby is inside the mom's feathers or hiding behind.

Clean and sharp -- and pretty. I do think the background is a bit distracting. Apply some blur?

[Giovanni Frescura]

No nothing blur.
Yes the baby is under the mother

That is a cute bird and moment. The habitat is lovely. The yellow flower does pull attention a bit but a nice dose of colour. I usually prefer a lower angle but here that would have been impossible without introducing some FG elements so this is a good compromise. IQ on the subject could be better, perhaps a big crop or resizing issue.

I like the natural setting as a change from the " bird on a stick " composition, lovely detail, beautiful feather patterns coming through clearly. I do find the yellow flower a little bold ....maybe slight selective desaturation would work.

Overall I like this shot and having a laugh at the extra set of legs hehehe
