Traditional Black Powder Rifle Scopes

Coraciiformes

kingfisher (Alcedo Athis)
D80, sigma 50-500 (at 500mm). iso 100, f8 at 1 / 320.

Of the more than two hundred species belonging to this order, only four are present in our country:

The European bee-eater (Merops apiaster), hoopoe (Upupa epops), kingfisher (Alcedo athis) and European Roller (Coracias garrulus). All of them noted for their bright colors and great beauty. are therefore the most photographed species.

This year I've finally been able to photograph the ratchet and complete the series.

I show a picture of each.
