Beautiful captures Ely, perfect timing on the second one. Thank you Rey for your generous reply. This was my second destination for the day and I had to stop even if I wanted to take more pictures. |

Nice set, Ely. I especially like the second photo. Thank you Mark. If you see the speed of the mother feeding the fledgling with her beak inside the throat you would think that the chick would be choke to death. But she feeds it so gently that no harm is inflicted on the bird. |

Count me as another one who liked the second photo! Wonderful! Thank you Ariel. So precise, so efficient, and so perfect in its feeding. Its only God that can create such a creature. |
