at 400mm, 1/125 f/8.0, ISO 500, tripod. Parco Adda Nord, Italy. Specie: Alcedo atthis

Lo "Spirito santo" è una particolare tecnica di volo tipica degli uccelli rapaci di piccola taglia o di uccelli di altro tipo, come il martin pescatore, che pure cacciano attivamente. È stato segnalato l'uso della tecnica dello Spirito santo anche in rapaci di media taglia come la poiana comune (Buteo buteo). L'animale, con piccoli movimenti d'ala, riesce a mantenere una posizione di stallo in un punto dello spazio anche per molti minuti; ciò dipende dal fatto che sono tenute ferme le parti prossimali delle ali mentre sono ruotate velocemente le parti distali: questo permette all'uccello di stare immobile nell'aria, formando una figura che ricorda la tipica rappresentazione dello Spirito Santo nell'iconografia classica di colomba immobile ad ali aperte.

A nice moment caught at this colorful bird, perhaps a faster time would have made you stop the martin's head better, but probably it would have been less "productive" in the wavy of the wings ... perhaps? Congratulations

Surely Mark with a faster time would have been firmer but I was trying to lower the iso that started and ..........
Thank you for your comment.
