It is good that you got both the male and the female. This image needed higher shutter speed as there seems to be some head movement. ISO 800 would have been better here as it would have given you 1/400 shutter speed. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

The composition is nice. The tree bark looks good. I agree about the shutter speed. Looks like you are making good use of the 500mm for bird photography :).

Agree about thew shutter speed. Nice find. Wish you had avoided the OOF element at the lower right corner. The tree bark looks a bit distracting to me, but that is not something you could have helped.
