Wonderful capture in great lighting and I love that you were able to capture two in such great poses. Excellent detail Raul and a very pleasing composition. Fine work !!

[Fabs Forns]

What a sweet pair! I like the opposed head angles, good ones too and the soft golden light!
Did you see the baby Stilts around?

[Raul Quinones]

Thanks for comments.

Fabs;
I have not seen any baby stilts yet. The original nest, before the first gazebo, is under water, not sure if the chick survived.
I am planning to stop by today after work.

Saludos,
Raul

Very nice Raul! Love the 2 baby birds on a single perch. Agree with Jim that you Floridians are spoiled rotten! ;)

In a single word.....Excellent in all aspects. Okay, so it took more than a single word. Beautiful image Raul!!!

[Vincent Grafhorst]

What an amazing image Raul. Your exposure is spot on.

[Hugh J McLaughlin]

Well done, Raul. The pair make for nice portraits, especially in such nice light.

Great find, details, light and setting. I like the mood and opposite directions the birds are facing. Thanks for sharing!
