Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 128

in Feathered Friendslast year

Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 128!

This morning I saw again how young sparrow begged for food his father. It is funny how the young birds look so much like their parents and still having no experience of finding food, they rely on the mother and father. The sparrow was squeaking and flapping the wings rapidly.

Now, what the theme will be? The sparrows were hidden among the foliage and that's what I will ask to show me for this round - HIDDEN. You can interpret it as you wish, but remember there must be a bird in the frame.


ROUND 128

SHOW ME A PICTURE OF BIRD/S

-HIDDEN


Here are my other examples

The father looked at his hungry youngster and put a juicy mulberry in the wide opened beak.

Sure the little ones are bigger than parents yet still being fed, nice capture of Dad feeding.

Another lucky shot. 😀
This year we have plenty of sparrows, unlike other places, where they start missing.

Little ones more difficult to capture in photography, never sit long enough or fly to fast.... 🙃

Absolutely right, not to mention how many times I couldn't focus and I ended up with blurry images. 😄

Great, you are first to enter, @sunscape 🙂

Hi Neli, very nice photos in your post. I missed the last contest my camera fall into the water, now it is in a rice box. hope it will work back. But I will find some photos from my archive and sure this time I will post my photos of birds. hope we will see many hidden birds and play hide and seek. Greetings 🌞💖

Oh, I hope your camera will be OK and you can make more beautiful photos with it. 🙏

Thank you so much, @zoricatech 🙂

Hidden means, birds are hiding behind something? 🤔

Yes, could be like that, or birds blending with the environment. Some have same colour as the surroundings.

So glad you managed to enter the contest this week. 🙂

Thank you dear friend. That I found in my Indian album.😊🌞
