Another from the rookery at Gatorland in Orlando, Florida. It is wonderful to see three chicks looking healthy and about the same size. Many times there are only two and the strongest gets all the food forcing the other out of the nest. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Hi Randy, thank you for viewing and commenting. I tried moving, both left and right along the boardwalk... sticks coming out of the nest everywhere. I should have noted that I removed and couple to open the image but the big one in the center I had trouble with. It just did not want to be removed easily. Thanks again.

The repost is definitely an improvement without the sticks.
Love the subject matter and appreciate how difficult it is to shoot at "rookeries". It is sooo... hard to get a clear view at a nest.
Chicks poses are really nice,
