Very stately bird.
Magnificent setting.

You really encapsulated the complete beauty of these birds.
Superb photo.

Got it from a different angle. That is the path mommy usually flies in. I got a bit adventurous and went there while mommy had just fed them and had flown away.

So beautiful. They're growing.
Composition and detail are first rate.
