Three-banded Plover (Charadrius tricollaris)

Aswan - Egypt

Canon EOS-1D Mark III , EF L 500 f/4 IS USM + 2X
On April, 30th we found a pair of Three-banded Plover with two juvs at some fishponds near Aswan High Dam. This represent the first breeding record for the species in the Western Palearctic. This image is of very poor quality because of the long distance and very strong heat. It is a 60% crop. full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
