Made me smile!  

Well executed from a technical standpoint (sharpness, composition, all
that stuff).

I like it lots.

Resend.  Seems the list, including the archives, lost my original response.

Great catch!  Love the colors and the moment.

Very nice.  My only quibble is the left bird being partly out of frame, but 
I wasn't there.

Personally, I think he/she is gossiping about the Puffin on the next rock. :-)

That is a very nice photo, Tim. I really like the way the sunlight is 
highlighting the wing. 

Very, very nice. Good job!
