Lapwing

superbe capture d'une grande précision !!

Not the most common of birds these days, Keith. The iridescent sheen on the plumage is really lovely.

what a nice color on the wings - and elegant curl at the back of the head

A beautiful portrait with very nice reflections !

A lovely sharp detailed close up and a reflection too. Splendid image.

a wonderful bird and great reflection!

A beautiful bird and what lovely coloured feathers, which almost match the reflection of the blue sky! A terrific shot and the detail is excellent, as always.

That’s a beautiful photo. I love the reflection of the eye!

Ein ausgezeichneter Schuss! Kiebitze sind bei uns leider seltener geworden.

Thank you very much everyone. I'm pleased you like it :-)

C'est un des plus bels oiseaux de nos contrées., et difficile à photographier. là, la photo est magnifique.Il y a deux ans, j'en ai trouvé un bléssé en bord de route. Je l'ai gardé quelques jours avant de l'emmener dans un "hôpital pour animaux sauvages". Durant ces quelques jours, il est devenu vite familier et venait manger dés que je lui donnais de la nourriture. Celà m'a beaucoup étonné. J'aurais aimé le garder. Cette photo restitue bien ses magnifiques couleurs. Quant au reflet, c'est superbe. Amitié. Jan paul

Thank you so much Jean Paul.........and thanks for the lovely story as well, that was a kind thing to do.

Beautiful and confident bird with metallic colored feathers. You can hardly get a snapshot in so much detail. All the best, Anton.
