I am happy that you saw the little family of Moorhens. I appreciate all your efforts. I'm trying to imagine myself lying on a footbridge... well I might do it if there weren't too many people around. I've been known to get into some interesting positions myself on occasion. : ) Mom looks pretty sharp and I like all the reflections.

I know i have not seen any of these in my area. It would be nice though. Your photos lately are much better. I think the camera works in your favour.
The moorhen is in a nice position.

It is a most complex shot and well worth the post due to its degrees of colour and the pose as well as the reflection..Very nice Asbed!

Hi Asbed,

Oh to be young and be able to get into all kinds of crazy position to take a picture! It worked and you got a great shot with a wonderful pov. This Moorhen seems to be looking at his reflection. Love the pose with the wing and tail feathers up in the air. Nice colors and details and once again a beautiful setting.

Hi
An interesting PoV here Ased of the moorhen as it walks around looking for food (perhaps for its crying baby!

Wow, this must be some wait that you had (also with a dose of sleep!:), but Asbed i also see that you yourself have a liking for acquatic birds especially and must be spending a good time around the waterbodies in you attempt to cpature these beautiful birds j

I find moorhens are not easy to photograph as they keep moving about and witha p&S i have found it difficult to get one neat shot a moorhen.They are either gliding around in water or waking on the embankment but always in search of food.

This is a nice capture with also some other birds in the water seen in OOF mode.The colours on its plumage are well highlighted in natural light and the bird is seen actively hunting for food for its baby.
The shot also does a good job of documenting the habitat of the bird.

TFS & Cheers
