Under the Dock

"Under the Dock"

I went to the marina on St. Simons Island, Georgia to see what I could find to photograph. I saw a few barn swallows diving in and out underneath the dock, so I walked down the ramp, to get closer to the birds.

I found this particular bird perching on the pipes. 

It did not take long to find its nest full of babies which was not far from its perch.

Baby Barn

A bunch of Barn Swallows were fluttering about for a while, so I was able to get my tripod set up and wait.  I was taking the photos from a distance, and to me it seemed as though the Swallows were fighting or defending their territory.  When I was editing the photos, I noticed it was quite the opposite.  The Swallow with its mouth open was a "Baby Barn" waiting to be fed:)

As I was editing the photos, the photo received its title.  I thought it was neat, so it stuck!
