Redshank (Tringa totanus)

It was the time for breeding in Shetland Isles, and all of them were at it. Love for love.

  5. VERY NICE BOB,
    I would love to know what lens/camera you use on your shots... so that I can learn something.
    but the point is that even if I know you use the 500 mm.... I would have a serious problem to convince my wife to buy one... it is simply too expensive...
    it's a hard life, what shall we do! no money for the Italians, too many debts to pay to our fantastic politicians..
    ciao

    1. I use a canon 500mm and 7D camera. I am living alone, so, I can afford it; once. The problem we all suffer, politicians keep the best of our money for themselves, and do nothing for us. Wow, I sounds like a communist......................

  15. Dobrze, że nie stoi na drucie kolczastym, bo zawsze się boję, ze się może skaleczyć. Śliczny i ostrożny ptak. Pozdrawiam.
    Well, that is not on the barbed wire because I'm always afraid that it may hurt. Cute and cautious bird. Yours.

    1. Giga, there seems to be loads of barbed wire everywhere, and Shetland Isles for example.
