    This is excellent, very nice pose on both and great wing position, what an unusual place to nest!!! I like how the head is coming out of the window, a real hoopoe home!!!

    Lovely shot, great timing, if it is practicable to repeat it I would suggest a little fill in flash.

    I like the anticipation in this one. Could you have moved to the other side to have the sun in your back?

    Very interesting indeed. Looks like the light not on your side and the fill flash suggestion a good one.

    A very nice interaction shot, the begging chick, incoming parent with morsel are great. It's just the lighting that could be improved...might you be able to photograph this nest again from the other side?

    Beautiful. Could be improved with fill flash or viewed from other side.

    Hi Giova:
    I love those birds, but that's the first time I see them in a place like this. An unusual image and it could be perfect if the sun were opposite your position. Good work.
    Bye,

    You've got it!, now I doubt which of them looks better. I like both.
