I wanted to capture him standing between the reeds, but a hay machine was approaching from the other side, and I expected him to take off for it, so I moved the camera a little bit to the direction in which I expected him to take off (away from the approaching machine), and yes, I was just in time, I had my day.

Super, Erik!! Naar het schijnt komen ze terug meer en meer voor in het wild bij jullie, niet? In Belgie beperkt het zich nog steeds tot enkele parken en de omgeving daarvan.

Echt mooie beestjes hé, jammer dat de vogel net niet helemaal scherp is maar goed dat komt door de beweging van dat beest
