[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) nest, located next to a tower view point, looking out over an area called Duursche Waarden, a natural area in the forelands of the river IJssel. I sat there and waited a few minutes for one of the stork parents to return with a meal for the three young in the nest.

Hi Paul
Nice action here... cool family shot :)
It is not so easy to shot B&W animals and get excellent details on both areas. You have good details on your shot only on few places the white areas are overexposed.

Hi Paul
This is a good action shot! Details are great and you caught the moment at a good timing. I like this DOF and POV and those beatiful birds that I never saw in real :) TFS,
Claudine

A great family scene you have captured here, Paul.
Such a busy nest with so many storks all at once.
Great shot with good details and exposure.
TFS. : )

Hi Paul !
White storks are the symbol of the Alsace, the french region where I live - they are very important for the people here, and I also like them very much. You have captured a lovely moment between a mother and her youngs. Excellent details, colors, composition and POV, and a beautiful blurry BG. Very well done !
Valérie.

Hi Paul!
Great POV and very pretty happy family shot,it's very unusuall to see more than one young in the nest, here where I live they only raise one at the time.
