Location
This was taken at Morwelham Quay which is situated in Cornwall England. A chance sighting as I walked around the historical site.Time
The photo was taken late afternoon.Lighting
It was a showery day with the sun coming through on occasions luckily for me it came as I prepared to take this shot.Equipment
I had with me my trusty Canon 60d and a 70mm to 200mm EF-S lens. I tend to use this set up when walking distances as it is light to carry.Inspiration
Not often you are walking and suddenly look u at a tree to this amazing sight. The mother bird was flying away and returning regularly with morsels for the chick's to eat. So I braced myself and focused and just waited for the right moment.Editing
This was shot in jpeg and apart from a little cropping it was picture perfect.In my camera bag

Patience is the key, being aware of what is around you and don't rush the shot.
