Sleeping in flight -Phoenicopterus ruber (view larger)

Thanks for your comments, ( view larger)

What a beautiful bird! And a stunning capture with the Sigma zoom at full extension. Great color and detail. It just seems to be floating through the air!

Interesting moment of flight!

A fine image and title.  A local commuter plane recently overshot their destination because both the pilot and copilot were napping.  Spooky.  But do birds really do that, fly and sleep?  Aloha.

Bravo Giangiorgio. Come al solito gran bella foto ai tuoi fenicotteri

Ciao Antino

Amazing colors and a very good image using an 800mm lens.  

Giangiorgio,

 

Very unique and unusual capture...great moment!  I wish there were flamingos in the US (there aren't except for an occasional escape).  They are beautiful and amazing birds.  Very well done! 

 

Best regards,

Dennis

A really beautiful shot with impressive lighting and details, Giangiorgio!

 

uno spettacolo...come praticamente tutte!

I never realized they had an autopilot, Giangiorgio. Wonderful timing, colors and light. A most spectacular capture. Best regards, Paul.
