    Very cool interaction capture, both birds look at each other, love the talons,
    the perch is unreal. Perhaps I'd try a crop without the URH corner part of the plant.
    Excellent exposure in hard light too.

    I like it a lot!

    I like this image. I find the interaction interesting and engaging. Great timing to capture both birds with pleasing eye contact. I am OK with the composition. If it were mine, I might try and tone down the tree/perch a bit; might help might not. Thanks for sharing.

    You did well with the light rather hard from the right. Obviously a captivating interaction.
