Circus aeroginosus, Tartaranhao-ruivo-dos-pauis, Castro Marim

Great action shots.

superbe photos

Both shots - great captures!

See why I will carry the heavy gear to La Cabrera?

I'm a bit 'slow' today Isabel (!), I'm not quite sure what you mean by 'heavy stuff'. Are you planning to carry a fridge up there, or an oven?

Nikon and telephoto lens, no fresh beer, sorry…

Freedom ! Great, Isabel !

A beautiful capture Isabel................with smashing detail and sharpness. Very impressive work!

I love the other image you posted as well (and I've commented on that separately).

Our in-house translator thinks this is a "red-eared turtle"...............but it's obviously a Marsh Harrier although you may call in something different in Portugal. A bird I've often seen but never got close enough to get a photo.

Translator do anything when a word cant be translated...
Tartaranhão = comes from the word tartaranha which is a fishing net or a boat, but also a clumsy person. Why it was given to this bird is a mystery...
Ruivo = red haired
Pauís = plural of paúl which means a palude or a marsh

Thank you Isabel.

Actually I quite like the idea of a flying turtle :-)))

Imponentes e deslumbrantes asas!!
Excelente momento, Isabel

headless ;-)))

Wow, superb! It was worth carrying the heavy stuff Isabel :-))
