Good work.Is this a composite of three or a single shot.
the edit looks good nice warm tones and good saturation.Did you do some shadow work?
I would select the top bird and use a high pass sharpen on it ,looks soft compared to the other two.

Your colors looks good
you got to play a litle with the DOF
The birds are to close together, and if you had to focus on the closest one the other 2 they will be a litle blurry because of the DOF
I thing it looks unnatural to me

I really like this composite. It reminds me of something that would be seen in an Audubon book.

I have hard time catching swallows on my camera. I agree with the unatural look of two being not in focus so close together.
