Scholekster - Eurasian Oystercatcher KPSLR-5657.jpg

Ameland

Made with remote shutter control
The camera was placed on a small monopod-pin (self-made) pushed into the ground completely on 30 cm from the nest.
The oystercathers were used to my presence since their nest was close to my campervan on an almost deserted camping site.
They returned to their nest so fast that I had hardly time enough to return to the van and press the shutter button.

Nikon D810
1/2000s f/7.1 at 16.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Amazing shot! Did you set your camera down on the ground to get this shot? Really neat shot!
