Dad's fed up with kids whining!, a photo from California, West

Photographer's Note

The two baby egrets are squaking asking the adult for food and the adult seems fed up with the whole thing.

This tree looked to have 10 or more egret families. It's on a small island in a man made lake. The center of the lake is a big island with houses.

Hi Tom!

Excellent shot! What a wonderfull birds, I've never saw similar birds before. Very good contrast and sharpness. What a dynamic scene! As we can see Sigma 50-500 gives very good quality at 500mm. I'm very supraised of it.

Very well done!

Regards
Jacek

love this shot, the direct stare of the adult egret just screems "YOU too?! I've already got my hands (wings) full with these two!!" very good colour management, the white is white and not overexposed. great job.
best,
Kristine
