Burrowing Owl

_336_2391

Chicks with backlight at sunset. A litter of six abt 10 days old, somewhat health although only three appear agreable to be photographed! The other three on the right appear either somewhat cranky from lack of grub or possibly camera shy?? The parents are close by.... It took many hours of patiently waiting to have them at least lined up side by side.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

This is a great shot of these babies all together this is once in a lifetime shot.
The mom and dad I sure are close like you said.

Excellent with that backlighting, and how nice that at least three of them aren't camera shy! V.
