Bob" this referring to previous post.

As requested by Bob "RLK" I am posting the image were the young
fledgling came to the mommy after mother was gone for a while.

After mommy landed on the branch, this fledgling came over almost
immediately and they both were gently nibbling each other, almost like some kind of reassurance. Angle wasn't that good.
If I get lucky ever see it again I will take some video of it.
Also ,both fledglings were making sounds, perhaps calling mother,
while mother was gone.

1D4, EF300mm f/2.8L USM NON-IS + 2.0X TC II (600mm f/5.6).
1/100, ISO-1000, f/7.1 on the tripod

Please click on the image for uncompressed view, thank you.

Mako, Nice capture. It almost looks like they're having a staring contest.

Looks like the adult is giving the teenager a lecture about something. A very nice shot.
