Artist's Comments

aka: vorkstaartscharrelaar, Coracias caudata

Beatiful and common bird in Kenya and is not easily bothered by people. Unfortunately the light was aweful so the background colour is really dull and the shot was underexposed hence the noise.

Nonetheless, it's still a lovely bird, and it's even prettier in flight!

what a curious bird...
Up here in New England, we have a ton of chickadees, but nothing as brilliant as this little fella.

I live in Belgium, it was quite a difference visiting Kenya, the bird species variety is huge, and they're almost all really pretty.

Heel mooi, zachte kleuren, mss een tikje onderbelicht. Ik vind het heel goed!

Ja, bij valavond getrokken en echt spijtig van het licht, maar ik vond het beestje te mooi om niet te trekken. ISO 800 had ik niet gedurfd :|

Potverdikke, Thierry! Da's een zalige foto! Hij kon inderdaad beter van belichting, maar afgezien daarvan vind ik hem perféct! Mooie waarneming trouwens! Ik kende alleen de inheemse scharrelaar.
