A flock of Curlews flying above my head

in birdphotography •  4 years ago 

Yesterday when I visited the wetlands of the Inn River in Austria I was lucky to get some nice pictures of the Curlews that stay over the Winter at the Inn River. I know I showed you several pictures of birds in a row the last few days but since this late winter, early spring is one of the best times to get some nice pictures of special birds. I really had to show you these pictures of these beautiful birds here. I am still very excited of the nice encounters I had the last days and my hands are still shaking only thinking of these very special moments I had this weekend. The Curlews, the White Tailed Eagle I managed to capture yesterday again and last week. As well as some nice pictures of the woodpecker, the yellowhammer, the starling and the long-tailed-tit.

I hope this luck doesn't stop, and I will be able to take a lot of nice pictures of birds this spring that didn't even begin yet, but which I am already awaiting with anticipation.

Although they are pretty big birds they are very good at flying and really do a lot of Air acrobatics. Picture: Florian Glechner.

I also took a short video of the Curlews, unfortunately it is very shaky because my tripod was not ready in time and I had to shoot the video holding up the long lens, which in combination with the camera is a bit heavy to completely hold it still.
