Hi Miro, great behaviour captured here, and the colours look spot on. Lovely clean BG too. A better HA from the BE on the right would have been first prize, but I know we have to take what is presented at the time.

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

I never get tired of seeing these colourful birds!
You captured them in a very special moment and with good eye contact. I wish for more room all around them though.

Thanks, I agree, good point, the black on the right is saturated. Maybe next time will be better :). Cheers! Miro

Thanks, yes, you are right, this time I decided to crop and present interaction of beaks. This is not handover, this is beakover .
Cheers! Miro

Absolutely lovely, a bird I would love to see let alone photograph.

great looking birds and the colours have been nicely captured,
Interaction always gets images interesting, i can see details on the bee which is classic
love it

[gail bisson]

I like the intimate view of the beaks touching and the macro look at the bee.
My first thought when I saw this was that I wish the LHS of the left bird was not cut off. I would loosen the crop on the LHS and add more room all around. I feel you have lost some IQ in the image due to the large crop,
