    Great angle, most shots are shooting down at the birds, love the chicks peering out

    Good capture with great open-beak pose and nice POV. I could imagine a tighter crop if you have the IQ, which looks good on my screen.

    Love how the BG curves away from us. Nice pose on the bird, looking down at her/his chicks. Great colours throughout.

    Oh, Tim, this is such a special capture and the chicks are so young! Love seeing their nesting environment. The blue pouch and eyes pop so well against the BG.

    Lovely image, Tim. I feel like you must have been hanging off the cliff to capture this. Wonderful to see the chicks and the attentive parent. Perfect head angle showing the blue pouch. Thank you for sharing.
