A male and female osprey in a new nest in Yellowstone. D700, Bigmos @ 500mm, 100% crops. Can't get close enough to get a great shot unless you have a 1200mm lens and tele-extender.
Female waiting for mate to bring lunch. :neglected:
Male eating lunch. Maybe he saved her some.

Now for something a bit different. I was in the garden at the very last sunset light trying to get some shots of House Martins and Swallows that have arrived back for the summer when I noticed a Blackbird singing away on the nearby electricity cable. The moon was bright in the sky and a couple of side steps put it right behind him giving a nice silhouette.
I took 2 photos with 2 different apertures and focus points (one of the Moon with f/11 and one on the bird with f/8) and then merged them in Photoshop. This is one of those times where Photoshop merging helps give you what your eye can see, but the camera cannot.

Looks a bit older to be as I woulnd't expect it to be so dark yet, but could it have been a Fledgling? It's the right time of year for them.
