Great poses, BG, interaction and sharpness. Wouldn't change a thing.

Love it...very nice shot.

[Mike Tracy]

Wish for more light under the females wing but I realize the males is shading it. Excellent interaction. Wish it was a natural perch.

Mike,

I'm not sure why you think this isn't a natural perch. The perch is 100% natural and it's alive.

[Doug Brown]

Fantastic interaction Jim! The female's pose is excellent, with an open beak and great eye contact.

[Shaun Boycott-Taylor]

Superb shot of interaction, great pose and eye contact from the female. Great background.

The kind of shot I would like to aspire to!
