Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 142

in #hive-106444last year

Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 142!

Are you ready for the next challenge? I love the idea given by @corvidae and this round will be about Long-legged birds. Let's see your photos of birds with long legs such as storks, flamingoes, ostriches, herons, egrets, cranes, etc. It will be interesting to see what other long-legged birds you may have photographed.

I personally have photos of storks only.

Hi, I think I'm back! It's been a horrible few weeks full of difficulties, small illnesses and stomach ailments etc, and although I have been out walking a little, the truth is that I have taken few pictures because I am becoming a little more selective, today I present some pictures I took 6 months ago and the following picture is the one I would like to participate in the contest, thank you and good luck to all.

Now I remember the stilt birds, they are also in this category.

This is a difficult subject! I think that I will pass this week.

Oh, well, next time then. 🙂

Interesting idea indeed ! deserving an Ecency reward @corvidae 🏅

It is indeed and hope it will not be so difficult.🙂

Thank you very much for your entry! 🙂

Always a pleasure! !LUV

Ha! I think this is the same species of bird from my contest post too :)
Black-winged stilt, I think. I actually haven't mentioned it there, but I am 99% sure it's the same one. :)

I just looked at your post, and it's either that or a veeeery similar species! :)

Long-legged birds! I can't wait to see the photos!

Lovely! Thank you so much. 🙂

Thank you very much for your entry! 🙂

Thank you so much! 🙂

Aw, this is so lovely. 🙂
Thank you so much.

Hi Neli it was a mistake in a post that I published yesterday I had the wrong community name. Instead of feathered friends the post-shows in smap . I tried to correct it with editing but didn't work. So sorry I republished it after correcting the community name. Hope it is ok.

Ah, I see. No worries, just leave it as it is.

Thank you so much! 🙂

Hi :) This contest theme reminded me of a lovely Black Sea trip so it's a pleasure to join, here is my entry and thank you!

https://peakd.com/hive-106444/@lightcaptured/just-keep-walking-feathered-friends-show-me-a-photo-contest-round-142

You keep walking!

Don't you dare stop.

Moving is living. Life is a permanent change.

I really loved the rendezvous with these two folks. One was chasing the other, I couldn't tell if it was sexual or territorial based. Anyway, they were both so much fun to watch, Nature is really unique and we still have a lot to learn.

These photos I took near the saltpans of Pomorie, a Bulgarian city established at the shores of Black Sea. My entry to the "LONG-LEGGED BIRDS" Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 142 ran by @nelinoeva, thank you :) These birds are shy and they don't allow people very close to them, so it's great I was having my big telephoto lens with me.

Splendid! I am so happy you join in again. 🙂
Thank you so much for your entry!

My pleasure. I often tell to myself I have to take part more often :)))
Thank you!

You are always welcome.🙂
