Hi Stephane

These are great looking birds. Nicely composed shot. Very good saturation of colour. Good job. :-)

Hello Stephane,
Wonderful shot of this funny little bird busy digging. I've observed his behaviour in Gambia.
Nice details and colours. I like the soft colour of the background. Nice composition.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Stephane,
a nice picture with good action.
The colours are nice and I like the low POV.
About the compo; IMO it's to tight in the front of the bird.
And it's slightly OOF too, but still a nice picture.
Well done.

Hi

Nice action photo of this comical bird as it sifts through what I presume is Elephant dung looking for insects and undigested seeds/fruit!!

I like the low POV of this photo....

Hello Stephane,
Fine well-composed capture of a Red-billed Hornbill, a species that I last saw in gambia about ten years ago, but didn't take as good a shot as this one. This is pretty sharp, wellcomposed and with fine lighting and contrasting Bg.
TFS,
Regards, Ivan

Hi Stephane,
Interesting... wildlife shot or funny shot...
Due to his business and the movement, the head is bit less sharp; though not really out of focus.
Well done

A great shot Steph - like the detail and the way the light shows through the beak. James

Delightful image, Stephane! Is he eating dirt or collecting material for building a nest?
Great perspective, colours and fine details.

Hello Stephane,
I've seen them in Kruger, by hundreds, begging for food. This-one is searching for his own.
Very nice picture, with good colours, details and lightning.
Regards,
Peter
