Wood sandpiper with perfect reflection

Getting a nice reflection of a bird in the water is not always so easy because you need the sunlight coming from the right direction and also the water has to be very calm to not disturb the reflection too much. On this spots at Lake Neusiedler I had the perfect condition for some great reflections of the bird in the water.

I tried numerous pictures to get some nice reflection of birds in the water but this is not so easy. The sun has to be in the right position to get the perfect images of reflections. And I really like these birds that are attracted to water and search for food there, since they are a lot easier to photograph.

I am already looking forward for this years photography trips and I am excited what I will find there and if I can get some more great images of birds. This year I will probably visit the north sea in Germany for some photography ( at least this is one of my plans at the moment). Then of course I will make several photography trips here in Austria again.

Beautiful shots; the little rocks on the first one are just the perfect touch for the overall composition!

Lovely birds and nice shots ;)
