    Nice light and low angle on this one. More room on the left wold be nice here. Nice pose on both birds.

    Kevin when processing from stage 1 at raw file check your Histogram click Alt and the RHS slider simultaneously you will see the reds and oranges are very blown. They may or possibly not be recoverable, I suggest you look at saturation and luminosity on the raw and just possibly lower overall exposure a tad and maybe reduce contrast a little.

    Jonathon I disagree I went back to my raw files and the bird on the left is a little hotter in values . Even the finished Jpeg is mostly in the mid 237 range. I did find one or two hot spots at 249 but just very small pinpoint.
