Super excellent composition. The warmth of the foregound colours and giving such contrast to the cool colours of the background. Birds... they are just lovely.

What a darling capture here. They seem to be taking in the warmth as well. But Mom's keeping a close eye on them.

Beautiful image of this feathered family. Perhaps the mother is taking them for their first swim into the waves. I like the light cast by the sun.
