this is a wonderful behavior/environment image. The lights a little harsh but you handled it well. I like this a lot. Nicely done

Interesting action. Both birds appear nice and sharp, but I think the light on their faces could be toned down a bit. Sharon

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try tweaking the lighting when I get a few minutes on my home machine.

Great action shot unfortunately in what looks like some harsh daytime light.
