I would call it "home coming". I like the bird on the left bottom corner of the image, signifies as if its coming home and being welcomed by the bird in the nest. This makes the image for me.

Excellent image. Liked how the things are arranged in the frame. How about cropping a few pixels from the top?

Hi RD, I revisited the image, I agree with Adithya. You can perhaps crop a few pixels at the top, may be up-to the level where the left-most nest hangs down, leaving out the branch.

Multiple nest and contrasting scene works very well here. Just wish you had more prominent posture for the bird at the bottom - may be looking up, the other bird on nest ? May be easier said than done..

RD if you have shot this in spray and pray mode then i suggest you get back to your archives and look out for that image with the bottom bird closer to the nest ? I just simply love the frame - a true Black & White image here. For my personal taste a small 1/5th of cropping from top would def add balance to the image. tfs

Hi RD,
Love the way the approaching bird and the one perched on the nest sort of bind the image. The flight of the approaching bird is tentative. Looks to be a fledgling. The bird on the nest looks concerned like a parent. A wonderful moment captured. If this were mine I would crop about 50 pixels from the top.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks friends,
And about cropping - not sure why didnot think about it, point taken.

RD ! love the way you have approached this. I just wish the bird at the lower left was a little bigger . But I can understand its hard to pull off ! Nirleps cropping suggestion would help
