Hello Marius,

I didn't realise you were a Nature photographer until I looked at your linked picture - so you are an accomplished photographer in all fields of the art!

An interesting note you have written - and, yes, Nature can be so cruel but there's nothing you can do to stop hungry and aggressive seagulls from attacking these cute and defenceless birds.

A beautiful photograph of this little trio of puffins, one with its beak stuffed full of sand eels, taken in lovely light with fine vibrant colours and excellent details and clarity against a nicely out of focus and non-distracting background.

Beautiful!

Kind Regards,

John.

P.S. Our camera club sometimes arranges trips to the Isle of May off the east coast of Scotland - there are puffins there too but the boat trip out to the island can be quite rough. I've not been but it's something I'd like to do. How long does the boat to the Farne Islands take and is it a rough crossing too?

Hi Mariusz
This is a really impressive picture, really nicely done. The clarity of the birds is incredible, and to capture this particular scene is just perfect timing. I've never actually heard of this place, so thanks for sharing a special moment and picture.
Cheers
Noel

Hello Mariusz,
Super zoom photo of the birds, a very interesting specie, needless to say I had never saw one bird like this.
Great orange beak, probably effective for fishing...
Fine photojob, my cong.'s.

Bonjour Mariusz,

Probablement l'oiseau le plus photogénique sur la planète. Il est tout simplement magnifique avec son beau bec rouge.Il ne semble pas trop nerveux non plus ce qui permet de bien faire le focus.

Bon samedi

Serge

Hello Mariusz,

Your notes reminded me of the cruelty of nature. It is the rule of the animal kingdom that the smaller and weaker will usually have to give way to the bigger or more dominant. Only in civilised society is this rule abandoned ... well, in some civilised societies!

This is a superb photograph. Not only have you captured a bird with its beak full of fish but you have, also, managed to get two further birds in shot! Puffins are not called the clowns of the bird world for nothing. They do have amazingly colourful, almost clown-like faces. You have captured these details with excellent sharpness.

I wish I had taken a shot like this!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)
I hope you and your little daughter are feeling better. I remember when my daughter had chicken pox, you couldn't put a pin between the spots, there were so many!!

Witaj Mariusz
Oh yes, Puffins. They are so high on my personal bucket list to photograph one day.
Beautiful example here with this trio. Classical how the middle one holds all these fish in his beak.
I didn't realize that one can actually see Puffins in the UK, I always sought that I had to travel to far off Iceland for that.
have a great Sunday
Daniel

Hi Mariusz
yes, these puffins are very cute aren't they!
it must have been such a helpless feeling to watch the seagulls pluck them - but this IS the natural food chain I guess, sad but true.

Lucky for you to have seen these birds more than once, it must be quite the thrill to see them so up close.
there's just something adoreable about them.
fun shot, lots of visual interest here.

PS
i'd love to meet up with a large TE group in the UK! that would be a great experience. I know John and Beverley sometimes gather groups together, i'd love to be apart of that!

see you around
Craig
