    Excellent look at the family. Great lighting, exposure, and details. The stare on the adult is cool. Frame feels slightly bottom heavy, but I suspect that's because you don't want to add too much nest. Given the choice between that and what you did, I think you made the right decision.

    Interesting title.

    I am happy to see the chicks. Agree with bottom heavy frame but it is nice.

    I would slightly tone down the whites.

    Neat scene, and they do sorta look like reptiles! I like the BG and the birds. The nest seems greyed out and "flat"...perhaps you had some highlights that were toned down or some other processing there?

    Great title, they do look prehistoric. Good engagement and separation from the background.
    Good IQ throughout.

    Birds come from dinosaurs right? Nice view of the little ones.
