Hello, greetings to bird lovers around the world, and I hope you have a nice weekend. Sometimes we humans like to be alone, and I've noticed that some creatures also enjoy their solitude, even when they are in a group. I often wonder if they have emotions or thinking capacity. To better understand, I wish I could be one of them for a moment. Today, the host of contest 159, @nelinoeva, has initiated a challenge to capture the essence of a lone bird. I have selected a few images from my archive, and I would like to express my gratitude to the sponsors and creators of this contest.
Young painted stork. (Mycteria leucocephala)
It was a big group of painted storks around, but this one had sat alone on the bank of the river.
