The purple heron (Ardea purpurea)
Hi guys,
Today I went birding again and I got this shot of the The purple heron (Ardea purpurea). I have to say I am very happy with how this all came together.
It was my first time spotting colorful bird, I spotted it in a nature reserve called Intaka Island in Cape Town South Africa.
As always, nice shot... just by curiosity, how many pictures you take before having one like that ? Don't tell me one :-)
Haha, this specific one I chose out of a burst of around 10 or 15 photos, but most of the other photos are alos sharp, I just like the wing position on this one the most.
Yep perfect position... When I take a picture of an animal, it's often blurry with the focus on another element. It must come from the camera not from the photographer :-)
The bird is bëautiful
Thank you!
Wow! Excellent capture!!! 😍 The purple heron in its flight is not an easy task to take a picture of! You did great. It is beautiful! And yes, I haven't seen a purple heron either. Thank you for sharing this precious beauty with us!

Hello Hello!
THAT BEAUTIFUL! The photo is so fantastic that I wonder if it would have cost you, the bottom gives it that touch of originality and the heron, because I am totally quick I guess hahaha

Brilliant shot. The photographic composition with the blur receding background frames the subject perfectly.
