The innocence of youth eh? this young woodpecker and young Great Tit were happily sharing a meal on my feeding station just outside my living room window.
I took this through the double glazing a few years ago just for a record shot.

Sony A350
Sigma 50-500
1/320th
f7.1
ISO 400
330mm
-0.3 stop exposure compensation
Hand held

Dynamic Duo. Great to see them together. I know it was taken through glass-but if you turn down the yellow a bit, I think it will make it an even greater record shot.

Unusual pair -- looks like the food in the feeder would be too big for the Great --

Cool! Nice look at the pair. Agree it's got a bit of a color cast.
