Rob, the image is great, but, with your caption, it's fantastic. I laughed hard at this one. :D

great subject and action. The steep angle is bothersome though

Waxwings look like their feathers have been smoothed by noise ninja. I like the open beak on the one bird talking to the other. Nice image!

The steep shooting angle works for me here.
