Snowy flying the coop

Nice dof to maintain both Snowies in good focus, Ry.  I like the individual elements in this image, but the combination creates a composition that feels awkward to me.  The dangling legs and down swept wings of the bird taking off put a brake on the way my eye wants to move based on the relative positions of the birds.  It's not something you can control except by taking a ton of images and hoping they do what you want.  That's always one of the big challenges in wildlife photography and the difficulty goes up exponentially as you put more subjects in the frame.
