Where's my dinner?
by Robert Bunch
I found this western kingbird nest at White Rock lake in Dallas. In this same tree there was also a mourning dove nest and in another tree 10 feet away there was a Baltimore oriole nest. I like this particular shot because all the mouths were wide open and the light from the eve sun was hitting the birds just right. The nest was only about ten feet off the ground but to get this shot I had to find an opening through all the branches and stand on a chair to get a decent look at the nest. I stayed far enough back so the parents and the babies didn't seem to mind my presence the least bit. It is about that time of year to start looking for nests again.
