Beautiful series, ISv.

My first post so I'll make it a colourful one - European Bee-eater taken in Bulgaria. EOS R body, 100-400L lens at 400mm.

I love bee eaters, and that is a beautifully coloured one. We don't see them in the UK.
It's better to post a full-size image rather than a thumbnail.

Thanks, I wondered why it wasn't embedded though the thumb opens to full size. Here it is again.

Very good shot Noah and welcome to the forum!

Many thanks, I've been loitering for a while and decided to jump in.

Great shot, Noah.

Much appreciated, thanks.

Many thanks, I've been loitering for a while and decided to jump in.

- exactly my case! Once I did "jump in" I never look behind: there are bunch of people here who are into the nature and photography like I'm (actually many of them much more educated in photography then I'm...) and very polite (I just wish there was just a grain of critic here - in order to learn more and faster but one can learn also by the posted photos...). Any way - instead of "loitering" around take your place here and good luck with the birds and the nature!

Is the intrusive green writing the revenge of Canon for using a Fuji?

GBH well after sunset. This is straight out of the camera with a bit of cropping and no corrections. The Heron has caught a very young Gar Pike.
