Two babies in the alewife nest May 7, 2012 i wont go into details, but this is tough shooting , long distance and atmospheric haze. right nowi am only seeing two chicks . the tree is growing and the branches are maddening. in the past.the building was an easy shoot. just as i took this photo ruby came in with a long vine like branch hoverd over the kids and dropped it right on top of them (click). they seem to be up and down a lot, 'but' i am patient, and will sit in one spot for hours to get my shot. on another note,i think a name with imagination is called for on the second chick., any ideas, i think its a male? enjoy your day , george mclean |
