Honey I Found another Stick

Lake Martin, Louisiana

The female was squawking encouragement to the male as he brought another stick to the nest. Their ritual for passing the stick is always fun to watch.

This picture has so much to offer - the expressions, the action. But the shadow shadow of his head is really the perfect touch. Excellent

Nice interaction. Looks like a bright light, but you have handled it well.

The commentary made me laugh. It looks more like she's saying, I don't want that nasty thing. Just a fantastic capture of this couple nest building.
