Eastern Kingbirds (Five Photographs)

Taken on August 2, 2016, this was the first time I saw the chicks in the nest (for background on nests read my post on Monday). The conditions were horrible, back-lighting, leaves flying in the wind between the birds and my camera. In addition, close cropping has enhanced the grain. These are some of the many photos I took in a very short period. Most of the time the birds seemed to have their eyes closed as if they were sensitive to the sunlight. I am ending with the parent flying in as a lead up to Friday’s post where there will be more shots of this nest.
