I like the behaviour you got here, and that is a neat little dwelling they are posing in front of. Cool habitat, nice to see where they live! I would hold off on sharpening the grasses, and perhaps look into warming up the image a bit. Otherwise A-1.

Lovely image Jon. Very natural looking. I like the communication between the birds.

Wonderful story and behavior you've captured here of a rarely seen bird over this way.

Excellent image of beautiful pair in habitat. Spectacular composition.
Love the frame, Jonathan.
