Hi Gerhard, glad to see you back here. This (like Callie's Coot) also looks like our one, except ours have more yellow legs. Great shot, especially to include the eye - it's tougher than it looks. I will post a UK Moorhen in the next few days. Well done.

PS Great title.

Well done on this capture, Gerhard.
Even with the dark plumage, you managed the clearity in the eye.
Excelent composition and details.

Superbe composition, le BG contraste bien avec le sujet. L'éclairage et la neteté sont parfaites. L'effet que l'eau produit est spécial et original. Très belle phote comme d'habitude. Félicitations !

Even if it's a "common" moorhen, for me it's not so common. This bird is fascinating. Look at the legs and the beak. Very nice capture Gerhard. Beautiful background.

I like the way the water is moving arounf the feet.

Hi Gerhard, nice shot! Great detail of the bird and the water, even thought some part of the photo is a bit dark; but it still a great shot!

The amount of time on the site is not important for me. It is the quality of what you make during this time which really count.
You always post so neat works like this one that we can forgive you, if there is really subject for forgiveness...
Excellent shot. On my wishing list. I have aleady seen this sort in Quebec. Great composition, etc. I particulary like the foot in the water.
Thanks my friend Gerhard.

Taking common birds can sometimes be a challenge because people think that its a waste of time. But your right in this case, its a beautiful specimen and you've captured it very well. I love the yellow and red legs. Perhaps the background could have been lightened a bit around the head. Well done, with a very pleasant composition.
