Good stuff, I've never seen young in the 'feathers' before so I'm quite jealous! :toast:

Lovely shot. I made some shots may self of these animals, but I'm not sure about the quality.
May be I'll post one myself. But these is a great shot.

Nice one... perhaps crop the darker area at the top... did you use NR as the plumage seems to have been smoothed also looks like you could have done with a touch more DoF as the humbug looks to have not been quite within it....

still a nice image...

Lovely shot, I agree about taking off a little of the bright bits at the bottom. Nice behaviour shot too.
