at Raw format and ISO 400

from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology website
here is somes notes on the Common Moorhen :

http://www.birds.cornell.edu/AllAboutBirds/BirdGuide/Common_Moorhen.html

« The most widely distributed member of the rail family,
the Common Moorhen inhabits marshes and ponds from
Canada to Chile, from northern Europe to southern Africa,
and across Asia to the Pacific. Vocal and boldly marked,
the species can be quite conspicuous, sometimes using
its long toes to walk atop floating vegetation.

Twelve subspecies of Common Gallinule are recognized
from around the world, most differing only in size or brightness
of plumage. One subspecies is found only in the Hawaiian Islands
and has been known as the Hawaiian Gallinule. »

Merci
