3 on a stick

Clever catch I rarely succeed in getting even two on a stick.

I imagine you wish they all weren't hidden, in some way, by being on the 'wrong' side of the stick, which is a bit busy with hanging stuff. Hard to know how to crop this one. It might also benefit from a bit of a 'Shadows' boost?

I can't see the Exif data, but good sharpness and DOF

Agree with the busyness of the stick and it would be nice if they were all facing me but without a boat I wasnt going to the other side of the stick as it was in water, and I'm not that keen ! Posted more for the reason of seeing them in the same place , I dont think I've seen that many on the same perch before. They seem to flit about as individuals or with their mate.

Not sure about the exif data, will have to check that my software is configured correctly.

is good to capture 3 on the same perch
bummer that some of their faces are obscured, some shadow/highlight work might help facial details as has already been suggested

crop wise
bottom and left not really contributing to the overall shot so would be tempted to crop some from the bottom and the lhs to balance it up a bit
