  8. Such gorgeous shots of the Moorhen. It's as if their bills were dipped in red wax - then followed by a dip in yellow! Very pretty.

  12. J'aime la façon dont tu captes le regard es oiseaux, comme ici avec cette poule d'eau magnifique. Je le répète encore, il faut aimer les oiseaux et les comprendre pour réaliser de telles photos.
    Bravo

    Bien amicalement.

  31. Me gusta especialmente la segunda fotografía en la que el ave aparece caminando en el sentido de la diagonal del encuadre, lo que le da cierto dinamismo. También la última, especialmente por el nivel de detalles que has captado. Un abrazo,
