And when they do so at the age of 8 weeks like this one they raise their wings to Dad and try to scare him off..
Dad got mad by the way and chased this little guy off...:eek:

Great shot Jeroen. Lovely pose and I like the plane of focus with the eye and beak sharp. The perch with moss is lovely but I would be tempted to crop some off the bottom
