Rolinha-fogo-pagou (Scardafella squammata)

Gosta de restingas, campos, cerrados e caatingas, mas pode ser encontrada também nas cidades. Mede cerca de 20 centímetros. Seu alimento básico são grãos e sementes. Constrói o ninho em forma de tigela, onde põe dois ovos brancos. O canto traduzido como "fogo pagou", deu origem ao seu nome.

Hi,

Great picture , i like the contrast btw feathers and the BG.
Good Sharpness
But i feel it is tightly composed! ( Its purely my point of view not a generic statement!!).

Hi Paulo

Lovely work. I like the pose which has allowed for the feathers to be clearly seen. Stands out well against the BG. Thanks.

Fantastic detail, DOF, POV and pose. Well captured and very well presented.

Great work

Hi Paulo,
Outstanding shot here. Very beautiful soft light. Colors are superb, as is the detail. Great OOF backround really isolates the bird well.

Hola Paulo,
hermosa foto, me gustan mucho los detalles de plumas y los colores, además nunca había visto una de esta especie, solo se que en Argentina habita la provincia de Misiones, donde están las cataratas del Iguazú (lejos de mi casa)

Very good shot. Great details in the feathers (especially on the head and face). Lovely shot. Beautifully offset against the out of focus BG!

Rgs, Aleksander

Essa foto ha um bom tempo vem me chamando muito a atenção, acontece que muitas vezes, você sabe, não temos muito tempo para escrever, e observar as fotos. Ola Paulo posso dizer com a maior franqueza que essa é uma de suas melhores fotos (a melhor) na minha opnião, está perfeita! Gosto muito do fundo e das penas assim todas "espetadas", parabéns amigo!!! Ótimo trabalho mesmo!
Um abraço
