Oh how gorgeous are these little egrets sorry to hear that one has since died. The exposure is really good on the white plumage - love the composition and hope the other one has survived.

    Aw, Fred I cannot thank you enough for this wonderful rating and review. It was a lucky shot, but sad for the outcome of these little guys.

Looks like maybe one wanted more room in the nest, do you think he threw him out?, they are very big for what the size looks like, this is an awesome photo, clear and we see what environment they are in, not sure if I wanted to know they got eaten by the gator, lol

This is a wonderful nature capture of two young White Egrets...great timing! Your image is clear and focused with lovely lighting. Love the soft fluffy white feathers against the greenery. And you have captured the bigger White Egret's face wonderfully. Well done!

VERY nicely done BFF. I especially like the way you captured the eye of the front bird. It is "Eye Catching" (Ok, I'll keep my day job...wait I don't have one!)

The foliage partially obscuring the two birds adds to the natural sense of the scene.

Great work BFF. Keep going. Now about those lessons.... ~ BFF

What a great capture of these Egret babies. Fantastic close up. I love their "hair"! So funny! They stand out and look great with the green grass frame. Great colors and clarity to your photo. That's terrible about the gator!!! They are just minding their own business, not knowing they would be lunch! Worth a 6! I'm out!

A very good looking nature photo posted here! Sorry to hear that they may not have survived. Your fine and off-centre composition offers us a good look at them and their location. Those beaks are great! Exposure and sharpness are good. Well taken!

Eileen,
A beautiful picture of this pair of nestling Egrets in their tree top nest their heads still covered in down. The one on the right appears to have a longer beak than it's sibling? Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

They are so adorable . Well photographed with good focus, this image is sharp and clear, exposure is well managed, I see good detail in both birds. Well composed , they are standing out from the green surroundings. Well presented!
