I would have liked to see a tighter crop on the bird on the right. I'm sure it's been said already, but the remainder of the image is not really interesting to me. Still, the backlighting is superb and the foliage in the background lends itself to the subject. Next time, though, get closer and see what comes of it. :)

Nice timing with its wings displayed and good OOF behind except for the distracting light catching plant to the left

Engaging action, seems a tad out of foucs, a bit tilted. I like the lighting.

I would crop this so the aggressive bird filled the frame. It would be even more intense if we didn't know that he is reacting to another bird. Leave that to our imagination, and let the image captivate us because that image is fantastic. You have captured a great picture. Don't let anything else distract us. The feathers in the wing on the right side of the frame are stunning.

I really like the highlighting in the background. It makes the picture seem "jungley."

The post in the foreground is a major flaw, IMO. I also think the birds are a little soft and could use more contracst to make them "pop"

It's neat how the palms repeat the wing pattern.

what a cool shot, but that blurry thing in the front is really distracting, i hope you clone it out later

Nice use of shallow depth of field to hold attention on the subject.
