I would be very pleased with either of these - never mind two. You are just showing off now

Both birds beautiful sharp and well composed.

Nice one Kim
I reckon a slice off the bottom would help- making it more of a panoramic crop.
Just my humble thoughts !
Cheers

I would agree with John here Kim, re a slice, but perhaps off the top too. Also, it looks like there is a slight halo (white line) around/back of the l/h bird to me, perhaps a tad too much sharpening?

Hi and many thanks for the comments, have done a couple of slices, as suggested - top and bottom.

Now that is an interesting image, like the repost a lot, especially the 'haughty' look of the right hand bird..

It is a very different image which I find very appealing Kim, especially the repost. Makes you wonder what they were going to do next Very Nice.

I prefer the 2nd Kim, handsome birds.
