Roy this is very nice! Great BG, nice angle of the perch, and the interaction is wonderful--makes you wonder what is being said. Alex

Cool image, Roy. Good exposure on both birds and the interaction is really great. The BG is a nice neutral keeping the attention on the conversation in the FG>

[Sid Garige]

Excellent job Roy. Great composition with excellent subject placement.

beautiful colors Roy - and really nice interaction between the two birds - did you try a crop with a little off the bottom, and more room above? lovely photo.

Great scene. Well composed.
