Week #3 - Waiting to be fed
by Dale R. Palmer

A Barn Swallow baby waiting to be fed. His sibling and mom are off the screen to the left. Mom is feeding the first sibling at this very moment.
Taken with a Canon T5i and 300mm F4L IS lens with a 1.4TC for 420mm. With a crop factor of 1.6, this would be 672mm equivalent on a full frame camera. I did some cropping afterward.

Canon EOS Rebel T5i ,Canon EF 600mm f/4L IS USM
1/1600s f/5.6 at 420.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Cute!!! I would have loved to seeing mom and the other baby in the frame, too.

Great action shot of "feed me now!" Love the "negative space" too and that little glint in his eye.

Very well caught, Dale, and sweet to see. You could have used this in the Negative Space gallery too. :)

Great catch! The Barb Wire makes this a most interesting Photo as does the blurred background. Nice offset,
