[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This little fellow, seen at the Frankfurt Zoo, kept a very close eye on me and my camera!
Mynahs belong to the Passeriforme order, the largest order of birds. It includes more than half of all living birds. The majority of mynahs come from Africa and Asia. Most mynahs prefer to nest in holes, with a preference for tree hollows.

Hi Silke
Nice shot. Beautiful bird & beautiful capture.
Cheers
Baqir

Silke,

I see that this is an old pic. DOF maybe is a little bit shallow. POV is unusual amd well composed. TFS,
Sheriff

Hi Silke ! This is awonderful bird, I like the contrast between black and yellow. Excellent POV and composition, DOF is a bit shallow in my opinion, would have been nice to see the whole bird in focus, but still a great shot ! I love the expression on his face. very well done !
Valérie.
