During several trips at Lake Neusiedler I was able to take some pictures of the black winged stilts that are pretty common birds there. But since now I only found them there and on no other spot here in Austria I need to take a lot of pictures of these birds when I have the opportunity to do so. The black winged stilts look really friendly and in my opinion they have one of the most beautiful mating dance. I hope I can soon see the mating ritual of these birds again, maybe in this spring since their dance is really beautiful, if you haven't seen it yet you definitely need to google it and watch a video of it.

I really want to travel to a continent like africa or South America so I can expand the different birds I already photographed. Since I am nearly always photographing in Europe I more or less get to see the same speices every time. When I see some other photographers taking pictures of exotic birds that can only be found in south america or in africa I am often a bit jealous. I hope next year when the COVID restrictions are gone that I am able to visit a more exotic country for my bird photography in my holidays. But we'll see about that.

In my opinion the black winged stilts are one of the more beautiful birds here, and I really like to watch their elegant way of swaggering through the high grass.
