Feeding time for the pelicans at Stuttgart's zoological-botanical garden Wilhelma. The herons stole their share;-)

Ja, die Reiher und Kormorane sind wahrschinlich erst vom Aussterben bedroht, wenn sie mal alle Fische weggefressen haben;-)

It is like being mugged Gudrun! A terrific couple of shots! Apart from the fact that the pictures are so well timed, I also love the colours in the water.
5 years ago.
Gudrun club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thank you so much, Rosa! I admit to using sports mode;-) The herons have invaded the zoo, they even have a big nesting colony in an avenue of trees and they seem to know all the feeding times;-)

Gudrun club has replied to Tanja - Loughcrew club
Tausend Dank, Tanja! Ich hatte mich gewundert, dass die Pelikane so aktiv waren, die hocken nurmalerweise nur faul rum... Dann kam die Dame mit dem Eimer Fisch und die Reiher (und Kormorane) hinterher;-)
Wilhelma ist klasse, nur momentan viel Baustelle....

A cracking pair of images Gudrun.................you've captured the action and the movement just beautifully! The light and colours on the water is lovely too.

Gracious how good these are. It takes a lot of generated speed for take off and diving. Well done.

Superb action shot and really funny, too! Poor, pelican doesn't even know what happened...lol!

Gudrun club has replied to Diane Putnam club
Thanks a lot, Diane! The pelicans didn't go hungry even if they lost out there and the herons sometimes also lost their fish to the cormorants;-)

I love the flurry of activity here, Gudrun. It's so unusual to get so close to a heron.
5 years ago.
Gudrun club has replied to Amelia club
Thank you so much, Amelia! The herons have established a large breeding colony in some trees in our zoo and aren't shy at all. They seem to know the feeding times and turn up promptly;-) As the river is also near they are living in paradise....

Beautiful images and capture

But I believe, the evening light, devoid of direct sun light makes good images

Thank you, Dinesh! I agree but sometimes you cannot choose, feeding time was mid afternoon....

Superb action shots Gudrun. Its a bonus being able to photograph them at feeding time - you can spend ages waiting for them to catch fish in the wild ;-)

Gudrun club has replied to Graham Chance club
Thank you, Graham! It was a lucky coincidence, I have never before been there there at the right time.
