[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Three young owls are waiting for their mother or father to come with the food.
You can see on those three the differences between them, they were not 'born' on the same day, Sometimes there is a difference between the brothers like those three, when I sat neerby I could see that the one on the right is very young by his behavior, his look and the fact that he was the most coward in a moment of danger he was entering to the burrow that you can see behind them, while the others flew away to another point.

As you see from the picture exif it was a difficult shot, I didn't have enough light for this shot.

Full description you can find in my former post Little Owl.

Hello Elroyie,

I think for the available amount of light you achieved terrific results, the diffused lighting works for this capture. :)
