Congratulations! Your are the winner of my spring challenge. Amazing capture of a bird that is feeding his young ones. The colors are so bright and the emotions in the birds eyes are amazing. I love this! Greetz from Angel Lappmark Sweden.

Location
This photo was taken in my garden. I have a number of bird boxes dotted around & the birds have made the most of them.Time
This was taken just after mid-day. I always have lots of food around when the birds are nesting & love to watch them feeding the young.Lighting
This was a well lit day, not bright sunshine but good enough to get a decent image.Equipment
This was taken on a Panasonic DMC-FZ200. I was sitting on my doorstep just a few yards away so didn't need anything else.Inspiration
I love watching the little heads pop out of the boxes when the parents approach.Editing
A bit of cropping & a little exposure adjustment was all the post-processing needed here.In my camera bag
I am a very lazy photographer & only ever carry my camera.Feedback
take the time to sit & watch your subject. I sat for about an hour just waiting for the right moment when the heads popped out of the box.
