Ja Jan, het leven is hard, óók voor zo'n jonge merel....!
Mooie scherpe opname in een fraaie diagonaal.
Lag je hiervoor plat op de grond?
Groet uit Renesse,
Adri

Goede Morgen Adri. Thanks for your comment.
Nee, ik stond in de achterdeur opening. Was eigenlijk met de camera naar buiten gegaan om 'papa' met een bek vol wormen te fotograferen. Maar die brengt hij naar zijn jongste kroost in the nest vlak by het huis.
Dit jong jaagt hij steeds weg. sniff.
Groeten, jan

Ah Jan he wants you to help him out there. A few bread crumbs would help fill his little tummy. Great eye contact with this little fellow.Very nice details through out his feathers. Well done.

Nice close up of the young bird - I especially like the catchlight in his eye. I hope your model got paid for this shot - some seeds or a worm at the very least!
Cheers.....Mark

Hi Mark.
They cost me a fortun, haha
Throughout the year I buy seeds to feed them. The male merel comes to me soon I go outside to the shed to get the seed.
As the crows like to steel it, I clap my hands, the crows flies away but the Blackbird stays, as he nows it not for him.
He now is so brave, he goes behind the crows himself, Haha.
Thanks for your visit.
Jan

Excellent details, exposure and DOF, nice pose. Reminds me of the female Red-winged Blackbird that visited last year, had one shot when it came near..
Yours is much better
