    Default American Oystercatcher

    Here is a shot from my Recent shoot.

    The parents were feeding the three young ones one by one and it was a sight to watch how many times these young ones drops the oysters on ground...The parents tirelessly picks and cleans it before feeding it again...

    This is one such moment where chick must have been full and wanted a break from lunch so it was dropping the oyster more than often... mother was tired and just stood waiting for chick to make a move but he too stood still.

    The sand mound in front was something I could not do any thing about.

    It was pleasure to meet Artie during this shoot which made it even more special...

    Critics and Comments are most welcome.

    Real nice shot. I like the poses of both birds, great low angle as well. To bad about that sand mound. I dont know if its me but I see several spots on left side. They are bit distracting. Other than that well done.

    Hi Sachin!

    I remember these chicks

    Nice that you have captured them together.

    The image looked underexposed to me.
