      Step 1 - Rough Idea:

        @chip-valecek I know it's not what you are going for, but the big bird looks a little like he wants to eat the little birds. It might be to do with the wide open "oh look food!" eyes. That might be something to consider adjusting. Also how about having the little birds all say 411 at the same time rather than it coming just from 1 bird.

          @gary-wilkinson I thought about having all the baby birds saying the 411. As far as the big bird, now that you mention that I can't stop thinking that. What would you suggest, maybe having him looking at the viewer vs the birds? Maybe closing his mouth?

            Changed up the eyes and mouth on the big bird. He doesn't seem hungry anymore does he? LOL

                Chip I feel like the perspective on the pole tops is off it is mostly noticeable next to the nest
