Hi John,
I like this image with the interaction between the two birds and the framing let's us see the environment where the nest is located. May try lightening the eye of the bird on the right. Nice frame.

You must have been SO excited to see and capture this! I prefer the original eye since the RP appears overdone. I notice you worked on the left bird's eye as well. I think I personally prefer the OP. I would however crop just a tad off of the bottom b/c I think it will help to focus on your amazing subjects. Nice to see the fish in the female's grasp and the pair both sharp.

Fantastic capture of these nesting Grebes! Did I tell you I love grebes
! Love the behavior and interaction. The background is a bit confusing, you have good blur on the leaves and flowers closer to the birds, but further back there is less blur, mostly on the left hand side.

Amazing encounter John! I have seen them in the middle of lakes only. I wish you had a bit lower point of view. The good thing is that you know where they are and they are used to people so you can go back and enjoy them some more.
Thanks for sharing!

Yes Marina- interesting about the eyes. I don't like messing but tried it anyway. I can always reduce it.
Cheers

Sorry Michael forgot to reply to your comment. I think it may be connected to my removing feathers etc which was quite messy( and crisp packets which the bird at one time had used in the nest.Cheers
