Hi Tim, Thanks for sharing this one. I like the image design and the sharpness. While I am rarely a stickler for d-o-f, I find the lack of same on the chick to be a distraction. With the adult's head turned away and the harsh light, this in not one of your best.

with love, respect, and thanks, artie

Thanks Artie, this was an oldie I had only been shooting birds for a couple of months. I was just reminiscing when I came across this and decided to post it.

Thanks Tim. You know that I love most of your stuff and I know that those chicks are irresistible.

with love, artie

ps: I missed the 2008 mention. Great to see your astronomical improvement.

What a wonderful find! I would be over the moon to find the nest+ some eggs and some chicks.
I bet you wish you could find this situation again now with the new gear and experience you have behind you!
Thanks for sharing,
Gail
