Yellow Bittern!

Yellow Bittern!

World Wetlands Day occurs on February 2, every year. It marks the date of the signing of the Convention on Wetlands, called Ramsar Convention, on 2 February 1971, in the Iranian city of Ramsar on the shores of the Caspian Sea.

Yellow Bittern is a very shy bird of the wetlands and is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918

This picture may not have much aesthetic merit but I am pleased that I could manage it! Black Eagle is a rarity in Nagpur.

This picture is full frame and was taken at 1000mm handheld, with 400iso at 1/50sec with subject at a distance of 21m, in retrospect I can easily say I could have done it much better but there was a higher possibility that I would not have got a shot at all!! Click for 3 more pictures
