Sometime insufficient light causes happy accidents, like this half-blurry gull that flew past me at the Rhine the other day. #birdoftheday #Coastal&River Yellow-legged Gull / Mittelmeermöwe (Biblis) #birds #gulls #movement #blurry #vögel #möwen #motionblur

Most male Goldeneyes I photograph appear to have a blackish head. However, when the winter sun is out and shines from the right direction they get a beautiful green shimmer. Goldeneye / Schellente #birdoftheday #Iridescence #duck #birds #vögel #enten #goldeneye #schellente
