[Willem Verboom]

Yesterday early in the morning I made this picture of marsh harrier at work
He is now working almost all around the clock for the mother in spe.The only time too sleep is by darkness.

Beautiful bird and image, which gives rise to the question, "How big is that piece of brush he's carrying in his talons?"

Neat moment captured. I like the perch, eye contact and nesting material. Good move on positive EC. The crop is a bit too square for my taste. Please keep in mind not to post images larger than 800 pixels vertically.
