Hi Ric!

I really love the sweet moment, and story you have here! The large branch over head is very powerful, and takes away quite a bit ... but I know you probably had no options.

[Gary Sargent]

would like to see separation between head and upper limb, but I realize that subjects don't always cooperate.

Ouch, talk about that branch being in the way! I think I see a little halo from shadow/highlight?

Great pose you captured here!

[Linda Robbins]

Nice behavior capture and outstanding caption! Made me smile! Too bad the birds didn't pck a less distracting location!

Thanks, Linda. :)

I don't think location was under consideration!
