    Two very, very good images, Gary. Well done.

    Detail on the feathers is superb.

    You must have a very quiet camera if you didn't disturb the young one's slumber.

    Nice shots!

    It seems that I simply have no enough patience for such photos which is quite awkward as sometimes I loose an hour or more for a single shoot of something that will be there forever. So, any good bird pic throws me in desperation. Very nice, excellent.
