    Very nice image Supreet! like the placement of the three birds and the meal is a bonus. Good head angle on all three and nice BG. Well done.
    Cheers,

    I've always been fascinated by these birds and would love to see one. This is a nice shot; great subjects, background, colors, and sharpness. Catching all the the bird's tail on the right would have made it even better.

    Great shot. This species looks like a lot of fun to photograph.

    Fantastic shot. Good to see all three bitds sharp and the composition looks balanced. Norm your browser must be cropping the image as all the right birds tail is there and more.

    Super shot three birds all in focus perhaps the two in the perch are just a little oversharpened/maybe it was the light?

    Great behavioral shot, with good focus on all three. It would also make a fine shot with just the two LH birds, since the wing position on the RH bird is not ideal. Still, he adds to the interest. I'm also seeing just a tad oversharpening of the LH bird and perch.
