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 Paulo
Magnificent photo. Your timing was perfect to catch it just at the moment as it ruffled its feathers.
Lovely composition with balanced cropping. Colours are very nice and well saturated. The DOF & BG is super, and the exposure and lighting is excellently done.
Very good work and TFS.

Foto magnífica. Seu sincronismo era perfeito travá-la apenas neste momento porque ruffled suas penas. Composição encantadora com cropping equilibrado. As cores são muito agradáveis e saturated bem. O DOF & o BG são super, e a exposição e o lighting são feitos excelente. Trabalho muito bom e TFS.

Excellent shot Paulo, great lighting, details and sharpness, nice bg and contrast. Very well done, thanks for sharing

Hola Paulo,
me gusta mucho esta especie de paloma, la torcaza escamada como le dicen en Argentina, lástima que vive sólo en Misiones, la zona del Iguazú.
lo qe más me atrae son las formas de las plumas. los detalles y el color de fondo son muy buenos así como la composición.
Es la misma de las otras fotos tuyas?
Un abrazo
Hernán

Great exposure on this beautiful capture, the details and colors are excellent Paulo. :)

Hi Paulo,
what a beautiful bird you have captured, the plumage with the pattern are amazing. Very good details, nice colours and light.
Very well done.

Hi Paulo,
He has really pumped up the plumage here. The light was very soft and beautiful here. Colors and detail are amazing. I love the pastel colored OOF backround. Great shot!

Paulo, temos aqui mais uma bela captura.

Excelente nitidez, excelente fundo desfocado.

Você tem feito bem em usar o tripé - é um hábito que preciso adquirir.

Belas cores e saturação, assim como composição apropriada.

Hi Paulo!
Wonderfull details and POV! Beautiful colors. Great photo!
TFS ;-)

He looks a little puffy doesn't he! Very nice shot Paulo, excellent moment you captured. Very well done.

Olá,
uma foto espectacular! Gostei do nome, cores, luz, detalhes!
A nota está muito boa!
Ana:)

Lindos os detalhes... esta lente parece trabalhar bem. Márcio ( meu companheiro) teve uma mas não gostou..não sei porque, penso que a achava escura. Mas pelas tuas fotos, acho que estava enganado.
Abraço!
