A good "moment" but nothing special in terms of the photography.

This would've been better if the lighting wasn't so flat. I'm wondering if it was flash or just very bright sunlight. I'm guessing the former.

How long did you have to wait for this one? I really like the two different colors and how they split the photo. It seems that the nests have a bit too much light from (the flash?) on them and it takes a little away from the great textures and contrasts in it.

WOW - very clever capture for capturing both in a classic saying. Meets the challenge perfectly.
Only complaint, is that I assume you must have taken this with a telephoto lens? As there doesn't appear to be any depth to the photo. Both the bird and the nest look wafer thin for some reason, so I'm assuming it was telephoto that caused this

The nest is possibly slightly over-exposed, and isn't that a wasp?

Very cleverly done. I like the way the paint further accents the difference between the bird and the bee.

Well seen and photographed.

Very cool shot. I wouldn't think they would build so close together.

It's a wasp, but who's counting. Nice shot of the swallow and its nest.

bird looks like it's startled from flash pic is very flat and I don't think that's a bee a 3
