A well crafted behavior image. The low perspective puts the viewer right in there with the action :D I like the saturated colors and non-distracting surroundings. Placement of the subjects provides nice spacing all around. I think it important that the eyes in both birds are clear and with catch lights. I find myself going back and forth between the two birds as they seemingly are making eye contact.
