    Default The Little Bird Gets the Worm

    Impossible to get all the birds with good positions, eyes and beaks showing. But I did like the worm going down the gullet. Some more SS would have been nice but it was dark in the swampy woods where this was shot.

    Love the framing and behavior. You handled the light well and I also love the feeding behavior caught perfectly... TFS

    I'd say this is one of the best robin nest frames I have seen. I do like the vertical framing. Solid view of the nest. A nice moment for sure.e

    Great pic, must be stressful being a bird parent with those hungry mouths to feed. Great scene capture

    You did the best you could considering the conditions, and came up with an intriguing nesting behaviour image despite some shortcomings that you mentioned.
