Blue-gray Gnatcatchers. If you look closely you can see Mom has a Katydid she's about to feed to a chick. There are actually 4 babies squooshed into that nest. I don't think it will be long till they fledge.

Congratulations on yellow ribbon. The eye is naturally guided to the center of the action—the mother's beak touching a baby's. This is the point of connection, the heart of the photo. It's an image that speaks of care, transmission, and the cycle of life. It could illustrate a story, a nature awareness campaign, or simply be admired for its raw beauty. Good work
Congrats Mary - what a wonderful scene!
Good composition with the diagonal tree and the lovely green shades as bg.
That nest seems to be way too small for three - no four of the little ones!
Mo-o-o-m-m-m! We Want Breakfast!!
