feeding

The two adults spent ALL DAY feeding the two chicks in the nest. They would buzz in every 2 minutes of so with dragonflies, butterflies, beetles; so big that the chicks sometimes had to really force the food down, the meal bigger than the beak. The lighting was backlit, very poor, but after a bit I figured maybe some fill flash, which I almost never use these days, would do the trick, and it did. I am on a mac, with an LCD, so everything looks blurry and I have no idea how sharp it is (miss the CRT for photo editing) but here it is, hot off the chip.
