Voici des images faites au Teich dans la seconde moitié d’août. Les migrateurs n’étaient pas encore au rendez-vous mais les oiseaux du coin m’ont régalée.

Cette Barge en particulier avec son joli plumage et son reflet presque parfait dans l’eau:

Here are photos taken at Le Teich bird reserve on the Bassin d’Arcachon on the ouest coast of France mid August.

The migratory birds had not yet flown down but t is individual was gorgeous to watch and photograph:

Walking through the reddening glasswort:

Démonstrative!…

Passionate about Nature and photography but mostly animals and birds. I live in France at the present, but have lived in Africa for 16 years and in the U.S. for 3 years and with Australia in mind for the future. With my husband, I created and managed a Bird Park in South Africa, raising mainly psittacines; the breeding facility housed over 1000 parrots at any given time. My photography is about sharing fauna's beauty with other enthusiasts! Equipment: NIKON lenses: 400 mm Z F4/5, 800 mm Z, 500 mm, 200/500 mm, 800 mm f5/6E
