    Flamingo, Everglades National Park, this morning. They are the Twitley twins, male and female chicks. Dee and Doo :)
    Female is above the male, foreheads are different at this stage, no red stripe for Doo yet.

    Oh that's precious. I might tone down some areas of the wood, but that's just me.

    No nits from me on this one. Really a nice capture.

    Only thing I might consider playing with is the angle of the tree. I wouldn't straighten it all the way, but perhaps something a bit less angled. No probs with it the way it is, though. Nice work!

    I like it! There are many Pileateds in my area, but I have yet to find an active nest.

    A superb composition of this family group Fabs. Excellent exposure, detail and comp. Love the curve in the tree trunk extending across the top of the frame.
    How high was the nest Fabs? - would love to set my tower up there ;)

    You and Alfred really made out with these PWP's, and you got the kids! I hear them up here and see where they've been, but so far no go. I envy you. Well done all around Fabs.
