Settling Down

[John Lowin]

Image from the Upper Masi Mara. The male had just lifted up off the nest, and the female began to settle down. We saw numerous Ostrich, but this was our only viewing of the changing of the guard on their nest. Hope you like it. C and C welcome, I'm here to learn. - John

Very nice, light was a bit harsh, but I like the atitude of the female, vet nice pose and detail. congratulations!

I like the eye contact and captured moment. Makes you wonder how they can raise their offspring, it seems quite unprotected.

Very lovely captured moment John and the caption says it all. Love the soft colors in this image and thanks for sharing.
