Gulls and Moorhens

schitterend met die reflecties

Thanks Fred.

Cool bird image; like the reflections here Keith.

Glad you like it Jaap...........thank you.

Die Möwen fühlen sich wohl auf dieser dünnen Eisschicht lieber Keith,in deinen Pips fühlen sie die beiden Stockenten etwas unsicher nach ihren Gesichtsausdrücken,da hast du richtig schöne Aufnahmen gemacht,ich beobachte sie auch immer gerne,auch wunderbar spiegen sie sich im Hauptbild :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Glad you like these images Güni.............thanks for your thoughtful comments.

most beautiful
.........all the best !

Thank you Annemarie............and all the best to you as well.

Great scene with the nice colors and the reflections, Keith !

Thanks very much Ulrich.

Your main image is stunning Keith. I love the way you've caught the water/ice change in the reflections, focus is immaculate and the colour is intense and bright. *****

P.S. The PiPs are impressive too!!!

Thank you very much for your very kind comments Maggie..........it was a lovely morning walk too.

Was für ein tolles Verwirrspiel...ich musste jetzt jede Möwe und Moorhühner auseinander sortieren und die Spiegelungen zuordnen...toll entdeckt!
Herr und Frau Ente haben keine Lust auf solche Spielchen :)

Sorry to have made your work so hard Tanja............but glad you got there in the end.

Many thanks for dropping in and leaving such nice comments.

Nice set of reflections here my friend. I saw a lot of these on our park lake whilst in the car but...

Well done and enjoy the week.

Thanks Herb............it was a very cold day, but a lovely walk. Getting some photos was a bonus! Glad you like them.

attractive shots of birds on the ice, very nice pictures
happy New Year, Keith!

Many thanks for your nice comments Marek.................and a Happy New Year to you as well.

Adorables ces oiseaux

Glad you think so Jean Paul........thanks for dropping by.

Ein sehr schönes Bild von diesen Vögeln. Wenn ich die Füße auf dem Eis sehe, fange ich an zu frieren.

It makes me feel cold as well, even though I don't have to go barefooted like they do!

Glad you like the shot sir.

A happy gathering

It certainly looked like it, despite the cold :-)

Aaw a beautiful main picture and I love the PiPs! Mallards are so pretty!
The ice looks quite thin, so hopefully it didn't last too long for them, and it makes great shots, especially on such a bright cold day.

Thank you so much. It was a lovely walk and the photos were a bonus! Glad you enjoyed them Rosa.

Great shots Keith,.. I know that nature takes everything in its stride,.. but I wonder if birds ever think,... '''Hey !,. what's going on,. wer'e walking on water'''... // Dj.

Thanks David...................but I worry about you sometimes :-)))

Ice has provided you with the perfect medium. Superb colour and fine details, with distorted reflections. I like this very much, Keith.
