[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
The Turtle Dove (Streptopelia turtur) is a member of the bird family Columbidae, which includes the doves and pigeons.

It is a migratory species with a southern Palearctic range, including Turkey and north Africa, though it is rare in northern Scandinavia and Russia; it winters in southern Africa.

According to the State of Europe's Common Birds 2007 report, the Turtle Dove population in Europe has fallen by 62% in recent times. This is partly because changed farming practices mean that the weed seeds and shoots on which it feeds, especially Fumitory, are scarcer, and partly due to shooting of birds during migration in Mediterranean countries.

Good Morning Vicma,

This is a fine shot of the turtle dove showing very clearly the lovely, lace-like patterns on its wings.
The dof is good giving a sharp focus and a fine bokeh.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hi Victor!

You present us a marvellous picture of a dove. The fine details and the superb colours highlight the pleasant impression created by your picture. From my point of view, the main subject is a little bit too centered, but this is personal.

Kind regards

Markus

Hello Victor,
This species in unknown to me. It have beautiful plumage, very sharp against smooth BG.
Regards, Pawel

Preciosa Víctor y en tu línea de elegancia y delicadeza. Aqui estas especies son ya un problema por su abundancia, en especial creo que es la turca la que esta ya por todos los sitios; tb dan muchos problemas varias especies de palomas y como no, la sempiterna urraca ( denominada garça en Catalunya, pero nada que ver con garza).
El ojo insuprerable y preciosas las tonalidades del plumaje. Buen PPF ( Pose, posadero y fondo :-)
Abrazo: Josep Ignasi.

Hola Victor,

Magnifica foto, muy bien trabajada, con un calibre lumínico muy mesurado, lo cual ha brindado detalles precisos del fantástico plumaje del ave.

Excelente enfoque y un fondo perfecto.

Saludos, que sigas bien.

Hola Victor.
Debo decirte que siempre ha sido un placer y deleite poder ver Tus finas fotos, las cuales son de alta calidad y siempre con un toque de distincion que las hace lucir de sobremanera.
La paloma tiene uno bellos colores en el plumaje de sus alas, y la pose no puede ser mejor, asi como el angulo desde donde se logra la imagen.
Saludos Victor.

Hello Victor,

The Love Bird!
Excellent capture showing all details in the plumage so well, and the colours are nicely reproduced...
DoF spot on isolates the bird well and giving a fine 3D effect...
A classical composition to show this nice representative of Birdy Kingdom!

Hello Vicma,
This is a lovely capture of this beautiful Dove. I love its pose and the light has brought out the colours very nicely. Great sharpness too and well composed.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Muy buenas D. Victor
Es uno de las mejores fotos de tórtola que he visto últimamente, mira que son bonitas las "jodias" y escasas desgraciadamente, por lo menos cada vez es más difícil verlas.
Un abrazote y hasta la vuelta
