You Wear Me Out (18)

Today I offer a photo I have titled "You Wear Me Out".
On the left hand side is a female yellow head blackbird and on the right is her very demanding offspring.I first spotted this pair of birds on the path I was walking on and the female was feeding the juvenile damselflies. The juvenile was not at all satisfied and demanded more.The female next flew up into the willow bush with the juvenile following right after her and I then got this capture.The look on the female says to me,kid you wear me out,I just fed you and yet you want more?I think that the young bird probably could fend for itself but it is easier if mama gets my food for me.Cropped and resized with a slight amount of sharpening using Paint.Net.

Crop to 8x10 ratio tus removing the blurr in F/G as well as the excess willow...

Adjust colours and contrast a wee bit to reduce the darkness.
