Bird macro photography (with action shots)
These evening I was able to capture shots of three different birds with my Canon 80D camera. The first bird is a Great Egret, which is part of the Heron family of birds.
The second set of shots is of a Red Shouldered Hawk, first perched on a fence and then on a tree without limbs. They mostly eat snakes and insects and hunt near bodies of water, which is where I was located.
The last set of shots are of black bellied whistling ducks. At first they were by a pond, then flew and joined a huge flock of ducks feeding on dead crops. Once I got a little closer, they decided to fly off, which are the action shots I was able to capture.
Here are the shots of them flying away:
What a beautiful evening to spend in nature with these beautiful creatures.
One love,
Wow, great photography.Excellent capture sir.
The photographs are really nice. Great angling. You do landscape and nature photography only?
Those are the two that I usually focus on because they are so readily available here in the swamp lands of Florida. But I like photographing anything that catches my eye in the right way. Thanks for the comment!
Sure mate! I will love to be in Florida some day
These are lovely pictures.
great experience, beautiful photographs, contact with nature in all areas leaves incredible satisfaction, to achieve photographs of the birds in flight is spectacular, I congratulate you I love your post.
this is a very nice moment, a very beautiful bird and professional shooting technique.
Superb photography, nice 1
Wow, amazing and beautiful environmental place, which in turn giving great natural effects and these nature's creatures are so amazing to admire and sometimes we give so much importance to us only but every creature have equal place in this nature and these creatures are older species. Thanks for sharing these breathtaking pictures with us and keep capture and explore amazing things and places. Wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂
Your shots are quite exquisite, its like i cant look at them enough, this is like a National Geography exhibition(pardon me im a huge Nat Geo wild fan) thats why i could identify that first bird, the Heron, then the Eagle ofcourse, you really know your camera, the shots are so crisp i can almost hear the shutter sound, do you always do nature photography?
As always @mistakili the animal lover.
I see you have a monkey as your avatar. 😀

Great pics and use of your camera. The photos are all very clear even the birds in flight, well done!
