5640. PHOTOGRAPHY TIP: Bird. Eye contact makes attractive photo.

 

 PHOTOGRAPHY TIP: Bird. Eye contact makes attractive photo.

Nicobar Pigeon, Bird Paradise, 16 Feb 2024, 12.18pm is a large pigeon closely related to the extinct Dodo. Canon R5, TV, 1/1000sec, f/4.5,ISO 1600, 105mm.
Focus on eyes:   

"Near Threatened". One of the largest pigeons globally.  It has a white tail so that others in the single-line flight can see it. It dips into the water or food, grasps it, then pull back its head to swallow with a gulp. A strange behaviour.

Joined "Friends of the Zoo" today. Evan was present. Very hot afternoon. Not many variety of birds
in Bird Paradise. One elderly Australian woman asked if I had seen the kookaburu partially hidden under the roof. It had off-white head instead of the snow-white one I saw during my last visit.
