A few short weeks ago I posted these Oystercatcher twins taking shelter in the little house provided by the conservation team that patrols the nesting beaches. As you can see , they are now too big for the house. They have been well cared for by their parents , and will probably be flying soon. They were banded and I cloned out the visible band on the left hand bird.

Slight crop and minor clean up.
I do remember your previous beautiful post of sweet little once. Another excellent image with very nice composition and color scheme.
Love the poses of both young once with nice HA, beautiful colors,details and lights.

Nicely done. How was the overall nesting success? There sure were lots of nests and chicks there earlier. Funny thing, I used "No Room at the Inn" as a blog post title 3 days ago; quite different subjects and inn though.
Very cute title and excellent photo. I like seeing what the volunteers put out for them. Good job.
Awesome follow up image from the previously posted one. I like the poses of each bird and the all important eye contact is spot on. Compositionally, this works well, but is a bit tight on the sides imo. Seems like an image where leaving the leg bands on would fit well, given the strong hand of man element anyway....Out of curiosity, do you think banding birds is a good idea?
I really love this image compositionally and from a great story standpoint. Agree with Shawn on leaving in the band. I am seeing some IQ issues with this image.
