Loving the vertical lines, a little grainy, but a nice capture... a great little head tilt.

Good to get the two well lined up Sandy.
Maybe a tiny bit CR ? Cool looking birds.

Very nice, Sandy. I never managed to get enough light in the eyes to show the red. I like this.

A very nice look at this subspecies Sandy, I didn't realize the plumage was that different, nice job on the depth of field.

Great job. I really like this composition, and these birds being so different in color from the background they stand out totally fine.

That's really nice. They are so symmetrical, it really makes the image for me. Cool that you got that red in their eyes.
