Lovely Moorhen, detail, lighting and reflection ... superb capture, JJ ... tfs ...
 
Amazing capture with beautiful reflection and plumage detail.

It was absolutely fascinating. I still have no clue why they did not flew off. Dont be afraid. I drastically reduced the number of shots yesterday and today. Many hours at my laptop computer. Continuous high speed shooting creates a lot of dump files as well but it is the best way to get precious captures like this one today. Only 38 siskin files survived. LOL.
