Nice composition, Barry and neat to get them both facing the same way. To my eye, the whites on the heads look a bit hot, with some loss of detail. You might be able to adjust that in RAW and bring back some detail. That white makes for a tough exposure against the dark bg and you almost always have to do some modification in post processing to bring out either the body detail or the head on eagle shots like this.
