Great Heron and Chicks.

An eye-level medium shot depicts a Great Egret with small yellow-beaked chicks against a backdrop of dark tree leaves. The mother egret is entirely white except for the bright yellow beak, which is pointed downward. Behind the mother egret is a cluster of sticks in which resides one brown egg. The chicks are located in the bottom left quadrant of the photo and appear to be clamoring for food. The two chicks visible in the image have their beaks wide open and necks outstretched. Leaves surround and frame the chicks. The lighting is bright. Shadows are cast from the leaves of the tree, creating depth and texture in the image.
