I don't think I've ever seen a juvenile. Nice.

Just wonderful, Walter! The baby is so charming on its own, but the inclusion of the caring mother's face was brilliant. V.

What a cute little ball of fluff, and so good seeing how much these birds change as they grow.

This is so sweet. I like the framing with just mama's head almost touching her baby. V.
