Hanging with Mom

Shiloh, Tennessee

Strange things happen in Shiloh in the morning.
Sometimes you are prepared to shoot, and just as you do, the clouds break a bit, and there is a brief shower of golden light....
Like this morning.
And when you process the image, lo, and behold, there is someone there you have never seen before.
Like at about 7 o'clock in this image. One of my first of the five -week-old hatchlings.

Yep...quite a day...

Canon EOS 60D ,Canon 300/4.0 L USM with 1.4 extender
1/640s f/5.6 at 420.0mm iso640 full exif

This is so cute! Mom must be very proud and you have
certainly captured a winning image with a real surprise
for those who look at the details.
