We are down to this one chick. The other obviously didn't survive. Life is tough for the sand hill chicks. I shot this with my Nikon D7000 ISO 400 1/125 F5.6 280mm.

A nice subject, and a sad report.
As with most of your previous avian images this has some major issues with focus and contrast. I don't know if this is a result of the light, your camera technique, the processing, or a combination of those factors. You don't say what particular lens you are using, whether it has VR, or if you use a tripod when you shoot. your shutter speed is rather low for 280mm unless you are working with a tripod.
