I agree with you and I like it too. Good portrait of a strange bird with a real human look. It doesn't seem very healthy though, with his T-shirt open on the chest. Any idea of the breed?

Hi Pedro,
This is really phenomenal! Although your note leads me to believe that it's real I'm still wondering if you created it. I never saw anything this strange in my life...I'm mesmerized...it's interesting, humble looking...it has "shoulders" like a man and even the chest looks human...as if it was wearing a tuxedo opened at the front...the "hair"...I could go on forever...
Unique posting!
TFS

Nice shot. I never would have known it was taken in a zoo. Really great focusing and details. Good lighting and interesting creature.

That hair is so human-like!!
A perfect portrait of this Marabou Stork.
Great POV and I love the pose.
Sharp with excellent details.
Well done,

Hoi Pedro.
Nou het is geen knapperd hoor, maar je hebt hem wel goed vastgelegd. Mooi helder en goed van kleur en lekker scherp.
Complimenten.

The do have a certain look about them Pedro and I agree, they do look like old men who have spent far too muc time in the sun. Good colour and fine detail. TFS,

Allereerst : bedankt, ik heb goed kunnen lachen ! Ik, maar ik ben geen referentie... ,
vind dit een geweldig humoristische foto.
Dat beetje verward haar op z'n kop, de blote borst. Doe me denken aan een overjaarse " Easy rider " die z'n Harley maar niet op stal kan zetten.
Pikken die elkaars borst kaal of is dat zo ?

Twee opmerkingen :
Vind het spijtig dat zijn/haar bek niet even scherp is als de rest van de vogel.
De achtergrond is té wazig, onnatuurlijk.
Vermits er geen overgang is lijkt het nu of je de vogel op de achtergrond hebt geplakt.
Er zit geen verloop van scherptediepte in.
Ben ik duidelijk ?
( je hoeft niet akkoord te gaan, dat is iets anders )


Groetjes
