Hi Kostas, I love the colors against that rich bg and I'm thinking it might need a bit more sharpening.

Nice one slow shutter to catch this kind of movement. Are you in one-shot mode or al-servo - little soft (the later is the best method for birds) they move all the time. Fill flash, ETTL might be an option here as well to help with body shadows too. Anyway, well done and please ensure they get feed, thanks.
