MONOMAD - Swamp Bird Photographing Session

Hello Everyone.

Today I had a surprise from a marsh bird. This bird is a little wild but it seems to challenge my adrenaline. This bird does not fly very high and sometimes hides among marsh grasses. I became curious about the bird's ridiculous behavior. It turned out that this bird was looking for bait on the wet ground.

From a distance I approached the place where the bird was looking for bait. it seemed like he didn't care about my presence. I had direct and very clear observations of the animal's body shape. This is so amazing to me. This bird has black on its wings. Its chest is white and its long legs are yellow.

I tried to get closer to make sure the bird wasn't wild, but I was wrong and the bird flew away from me. I have to wait for him to return to the swamp water. Soon after, the lively bird returned home to the swamp. Here I had the opportunity to capture with a 70-300mm lens that I brought from home.

Before I shoot of course I have to set the camera settings such as Shutter speed, Aperture and here I set the shutter speed to 500 Seconds. some photos really relieved me because I really wanted to take a photo of the bird. I don't know what type of bird it is but I have to try to find references to the type of bird. Thank goodness what I was looking for turned out to be on the Wikipedia site. According to wikipedia.org, this bird is Black Winged Stilt.

Here's a shot of me slightly competing the speed of the lens with the speed of the bird flying.
