Toos are the most curious of birds. This looks like a pair of Bare Eyed toos. I think that the spots that people mentioned during the challenge are due to lightening up the underexposed shadows areas of the image. It's still a wonderful take on the personality of the birds, so it is a good shot.
Are those dots actually on the birds? Nice perspective, though I would like to see a tighter crop to make the shot more about the birds and less about the tree. Good job!
I'm a little confused by the spotting and outlines on the birds and below them in a few places on the tree. It doesn't match the rest of the image in terms of realism which is disconcerting to me.
