Bee-eater (Merops apiaster) sent on May 29, 2025 (3:19) by Mgnello. 2 comments, 93 views.

1/500 f/5.6, ISO 100, hand held. Oasi la Madonnina, Italy.

Si tratta di una delle specie più appariscenti dell'avifauna italiana. La sua colorazione ricorda quella di un uccello tropicale. La gola è gialla, bordata di nero, le parti inferiori sono verde-blu, il capo e il mantello sono castano marrone con sfumature dorate sulle scapole, ali e coda sono verde azzurro.

The bee-eater is a beautiful and colorful bird that reaches us for nesting, I see your portrait with too much contrast mask and with a tail.... Cut!!! Greetings

I honestly don't use the unsharp mask at all, the photo as you see it, was taken, I'm sorry... As for the tail it is true and cut but I liked the expression of the subject the only one I had, at the next turn I will do my best to be able to better center the subject .... Thank you for your comment and for your report a big greeting.... (MGNELLO)
