Great shot!!!

I don't have really anything negative to say about this shot. Your focus on the eye is better than your shot of the two birds "talking". You have great lines in the log and in the mud in the background, leading my eye to the birds head. You have enough dead space in front of the bird, allowing us to imagine what he is looking out at (nice placement of the subject I'm trying to say, I guess).
