Comment from GaliaG
pity the birds are hidden in the background, the photo is very dark and the left negative space is a distraction, if the bird were in the center of the photo it could be better

thanks for sharing

Nicely captured image of the loving parent taking care of the demanding fledgling with mouth agape. Good focus and nice compositing. There is a pleasing softness in the shot. Good color. Well seen.

Absolutely delightful nature moment captured here Susan you can really ask for much better then this!
The timing is just perfect to show the viewer whats goning to happen next! in fact Susan I dont think that you need the left half off the image crop that off and just show the two sparrows!

Adrian,
Thanks a million for your complementary review on this quick snapshot of the Cock Sparrow about to feed his newly fledged Chick. I did not crop the left as I feared it would loose even more focus.

Comment from Charlie Newman
I like the composition and the placement of the birds in this setting. You also have captured the connection between the birds which adds much to the composition. Color balance is good.

A pretty good nature shot posted her! Your fine, off-centre composition allows us a good look at the scene before you. Was feeding taking place or a bout of discipline? Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

la fête des Pères was here last Sunday, but I know in some countries it is on another day;
an excellent stop action of sparrow dad feeding his baby.

Educational info notes.

Fantabulous avian pose in a most candid fashion...
A well-timed still action capture!

Verdant overtone!
I like the painterly feel.
Great framing.
Controlled illumination.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

Thanks for sharing...
