Description

Mentre, lungo il fosso, a Bozzano scattavo foto macro nell’erba un rumore nell’acqua mi avvisava che le folaghe stavano attraversando. Quindi inversione di mira e scattavo con l’obiettivo macro ( Tamron 90mm con duplicatore 1.4x ) While along the ditch, taking pictures in Bozzano macro water grass sound telling me that coots were crossing. Then reverse targeting and taken with the macro lens (Tamron 90mm with doubler 1.4x) The coots are medium-sized water birds belonging to the rail family. They are the kind Fulica. The greater variety of species found in South America and it is likely that this genus originated there. These rails have an almost completely black plumage and, unlike many rails are usually easy to see, since they often swim in open water rather than hiding in the undergrowth. Forehead prominent feature of the shields or other decoration, and many have colorful beaks, but not all, have the white under tail. Like other rails, they have webbed feet. Tend to have short rounded wings and be good volatrici, although northern species are nevertheless capable of covering long distances on rare occasions, the American Coot has reached Britain and Ireland. The species that migrate moving only at night. With strong legs coots can walk and run fast and their long toes are well adapted to soft, uneven surfaces. These birds are omnivorous and feed mainly on plants, but also small animals and eggs. During the breeding season are aggressively territorial, but usually can be seen in large flocks among the low vegetation of lakes in which they prefer to live. In the U.S. a flock of coots is known to cover . Good day and good week Thanks for the comments and the favourites of previous image

Avete interferito così perfettamente l'azione! È un bello uccello ed il particolare nelle ali è molto piacevole. Grande colpo. You caught the action so perfectly! It is a beautiful bird and the detail in the wings is very nice. Great shot.

This is wonderful! So much activity and beauty! Excellent detail and color of the wings and capture of the splashing! The amount of energy he is exerting and the noise he is making is obvious from the huge spray and the his running pose. Wonderful reflections and ripples! I love the reflections of the splashes! I like the spray on the left side of the image. It gives a feeling of the larger activity going on. Superb capture of this moment! The sound must have been great too! Questo è meraviglioso! tanta attività e la bellezza! Eccellente dettaglio e il colore delle ali e la cattura del spruzzi! La quantità di energia che esercita e il rumore che sta facendo è evidente dal spray enorme e la sua posa in esecuzione. meravigliosi riflessi e onde! Io amo i riflessi della spruzzi! Mi piace lo spray sul lato sinistro dell'immagine. Dà una sensazione di maggiore attività in corso. Superba la cattura di questo momento! Il suono deve essere stata grande anche! Buona giornata
