Very nice! The light and setting makes this look almost abstract - you've simplified this composition to just the essential elements.

Nice exposure with good dof. Great poses by both and the minnow is a topper. Sharon

Great low angle shot of this behaviour. I agree with Sharon that the minnow is the topper.

Oh sweet! Man a lot of nice images in avian and this just adds to the list. What a great comp. Love the low angle and the bird's positions relative to each other. Love the light on the face and eye, which is really tough to get on this species. Both birds are tack too. What f-stop and shutter speed did you use on this shot? EP candidate IMO. Very well done.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. It's been a while since I've posted here and forgot to add the techs, so I went back and added to the original post.
