    Pied Cormorant. Bird on the right is the adult, the one checking its guts is the juv being fed. The bird on the left is another juv waiting for its turn.

    Excellent work Ofer, the waiting bird adds a lot to this image I think. If it were just the parent and young (halfway down the throat) you might not know what was going on. Low angle is cool and the slim crop suits this scene.

    Another cool feeding behaviour captured, and the flying droplets add interest. I do like the other youngster waiting his turn. If anything, I would maybe take some off the bottom.

    Another great shot in the series. I agree that the waiting bird makes it. Good DOF to get all subjects sharp. Nicely done.

    Worth getting in the water for this image, Ofer! Excellent behavior shot! Even with your explanation and the waiting juvenile, I had to study the image for a moment to figure it out... certainly drew me in!
