This was taken through my bedroom window
These birds were feeding on the bread thrown out by the next door neighbour. I didn't get any time to really zone in so took it on Auto
Before anyone jumps at me I have been told this is the male bird but I think the mothering comes through in this image
I dont expect it to rate high but for a candid image I think I have captured the moment well.

Even though a person sees this type of thing happenquite often, it usually happens so fast you never get the shot. Well down and am glad you got this one.
Good luck, deserves a high finish
Of the "animal mother" set, by far the best IMO, because it actually shows an act of motherhood. This is very nicely lit and captured; good luck with it :-)
I've decided to bump this up as my fav and give it a (9). I love the dof and how you can clearly see the food and the babies mouth open. It's just an all around lovely shot, and I would be shocked if it didn't ribbon. Good luck!
Lovely lighting, crop, subject and action. It seems a little noisy, perhaps relating to a large magnification factor. I think Neat Image, or some equivalent noise reduction filter, would have made this good shot even better.
