Grazie Carmelo! In questo scatto la cosa che più mi è piaciuto documentare è l'atteggiamento protettivo delle femmine adulte nei confronti dei giovani (che durante l'abbeverata sono più esposti agli attacchi di predatori): mattino presto, il gruppo si avvicina silenziosissimo ed in allerta alla riva del fiume dove fa un'ansa, le madri fanno quadrato attorno ai piccoli e la femmina seminascosta con la proposcide alzata annusa l'aria per sentire la presenza di animali in vicianza...ripensandoci è stato un momento magico!
Un caro saluto, Enrico Sorriso

Thanks Carmelo! In this shot, the thing that I liked the most is documenting the protective attitude of the adult females against young people (who during the watering are more susceptible to attack by predators): early morning, the group is approaching quiet and alert to the bank of the river where it makes a bend, mothers are around small square and the female with the hidden proposcide raised sniffs the air to feel the presence of animals in vicianza ... in retrospect it was a magical moment!
Best wishes, Henry :-)
