A wonderfully-captured moment that no doubt took considerable planning to achieve! I like the way the perched bird on the branch balances the composition.

They have posed well for you!

Thanks for your comments Mike. I waited about two hours for them to appear together above their nest.
I was about 50 yards from their tree and they didn't seem to notice my presence.
