This is a great set and you captured a very interesting event. My suggestions are that the exposure on a couple of them seems a little hot with some clipping in the white on the breast of the male. If I were presenting these I might just pick the sharpest two or three shots with the best exposure and only show them. There is also one little cut off part on the perch where it looks like someone clipped off a twig that wasn't in such a good location. I would probably try to clone that out.

Yeah ... and they are so damn hard to shoot! The sequence shots you have here are simply amazing! That last image is perfect in every way ... the lighting, the exposure, the background, the story telling, etc, etc! Great job!
I noticed a catchlight on the eye of the 2 birds. Was that from the sun or your speedlite?

Lovely images and YGMV, Philip! I didn't realize until yesterday that those birds are actually tiny.

Delightful sequence, wonderfully captured! Not only did you get the important details, your pictures really seem to show the male performing / being 'tested' by her.
