It's cute how they are lined up. The one with its mouth open will probably be served next.
Great capture of a wonderful moment!

yes, I am excited with this one too!... it's far from a perfect pic... but oooh, if I think how long I've stood there on that bridge, afraid from moving one inch closet - and shooting shot after shot after shot to try and catch the exact right moment... ... those birdies are soooo swift, and you really don't see them come, except from observing the behaviour of the young...
It was sheer good luck to have a few shots that could get a narrow pass

yeah, I made around 50 pics I think, standing there, trying to catch the right moment... only a few were just good enough (not too uncharp, not too much moved... ) it was indeed a matter of sheer luck... you almost didn't see the adult birds come... you just had to anticipate and watch the reactions of the little ones... aww, it went so quick! Luckily, they kept on repeating the show
