In my eyes you learn how I feel!

His sad, piercing eyes, but with a fine glimmer of hope, seem to be telling me that we need to be better, not to see only ourselves and our problems and to fight for nature, not against it. Being good is all you can leave behind and you can do it every day.

In council

Once they get used to you and tolerate you, they are like curious gossiping old ladies. They quickly call their sisters; they hide one behind each other and scan you from head to toe. „What is this moving rock? Who does it belong to? What’s the purpose of it? Hear, hear … he came all the way from Romania, to see us! We’ve got this crazy one on our heads now. We shall tame him, in no time!” Eurasian otter | Scotland, 2022

SEE you later!

Don’t leave the peanut in your hand for the carrot in the ground. Our expression made it all the way to Canada, where they adapted specifically for the black squirrel, who seems to have understood it very well. But she doesn’t know that carrot is good for sight. Black squirrel | Canada, 2022

The winged hobbit

He chirped a magic song that put orcs and great Sauron to sleep, then he welcomed me into his tale of light and merry thrills. Robin | Scotland, 2022

Loneliness

When you need to rediscover yourself, when you feel emotions are overwhelming and loneliness weighs heavily, seek to spend some time with yourself. Only in silence can you discover yourself as you really are, and not as the others perceive you. Loneliness is not bad, as long as you don’t feel lonely! Puffin | Faeroe Islands, 2022

Hide-and-seek

In the right grass, any goose looks good. Canadian goose | Canada, 2022

Pride

Legends tell that deer wanted to be “the ruler of forests and mountains”, so God blessed him with two green, beautiful and wealthy oak branches. The deer returned proudly to his duties, but no sooner he returned to God, crying, because the wolf didn’t want to obey. God was so surprised to find the deer being such a coward, and, as a punishment, He dried its green and majestic branches out of his beautiful head. Carpathian deer | Romania, 2022

The Cardinal

They exchanged colours, but the cardinal overdosed on red and got agitated with hunger. Red Cardinal | Canada, 2022

Serene

I don’t know how a flying angel looks like, but until then, I enjoy watching her, the arctic tern. Arctic tern | Island, 2022

The long-legged cowboy

He comes from the West. Having sunset behind and adventure ahead. Just got off his horse, in the middle of the wilderness. He threw off his hat, took off his boots and now he is looking around fearfully. Stilt | Romania, 2021

Just an ordinary day

I have learnt that body language speaks volumes. In this particular case: Him: I’m leaving, if you don’t tell me what’s bothering you. Her: I told you, I’m ok! Kingfisher | Romania, 2021

Queue at the canteen

When one of them is eating, the others sit with their tails between their legs, waiting their turn to enjoy some fish. Puffin | Faeroe Islands, 2022

The rabbit and the pheasant

A rabbit, jealous that he doesn’t have colourful plumage. A pheasant, sad that he would be able to hear better, with bigger ears. What a shame they can’t see how beautiful they are! Together and individually. Rabbit and pheasant | Czech Republic, 2022

The dance

They dance as nobody’s watching. They move so gracefully, that they barely touch the sheen of the water. And I, the lucky one, had a front ticket at their show. Flamingo | Cyprus, 2022

Monologue

Him, the main actor on nature’s stage. Me, a spectator in the first row. Common seagull | Italy, 2021

To get tan

Contre-jour. Or the only light where his metallic feathers are allowed to hide their colours and to shower in the golden sun, with great pride. Starling | Romania, 2022

Habit

The bird who borrows her voice to the raptors. With his scream, he is adored by the Hollywood directors. And, whenever an eagle or a hawk appears in movies, regardless of the species, the soundtrack is always its piercing, hoarse cry. Red-tailed falcon | Canada, 2022

Pastel

It’s like he was made to be caught in my pictures, sunset behind him. I absolutely adore him! And I pronounce him as being the most wonderful-gorgeous-beautiful-adorable. Startail | Romania, 2022

When you shake off the snow

She melted my soul with 'her gentle, deceptive looks, as books use to describe her. I was fascinated. I turned my head towards her, just like she does when she turns for her pray. I will keep her always in my mind, with my most beautiful memories. Ural Owl | Romania, 2021

Do not disturb

It’s for the first time when, from a series of frames, I choose the one with the back. More than her profile, I liked her courage. She knew I was there, she stood for a picture, then she turned to the light. With no fear. Short-billed Dowitcher | Island, 2022

Perfection

It’s the quietest species from all herons, and, while I was looking for the colourful kingfishers, I almost missed her. But, luckily, I didn’t, and I just couldn’t take my eyes off of her – so pure, delicate and immaculate, as she stood there. A little egret, looking for a partner. I was lucky enough to capture her in her most beautiful moment, during the courtship period, when the lorum changes colour and becomes purple. Great egret | Romania, 2021

The thief

Good at stealing chickens; as well as my heart. Red fox | Romania, 2022

Flight

„First you shrug your shoulders, then you stand on tiptoe, close your eyes, refuse hearing. Then you say to yourself: now I’m going to fly. Then you say: I’m flying. This is how you can fly.” (Flying lesson - Nichita Stănescu) White-tailed eagle | Romania, 2022

The bear and the jay

It’s not the first time when I see them together, and they both seem to live in harmony. Maybe less so during the winter, when he’s snoring in his den, belly up, and she’s hiding the acorns, just for the oak trees, to have more babies. And that’s why the bear eats honey and raspberries. The bear and the jay | Romania, 2022

Seeking the better

She is running to calmer waters, my eyes are running after her. Great egret | Romania, 2021

Haute couture

Many international models paraded on Delta’s catwalk, buy only one stood out for her elegance and naturalness. Born as if to be on the catwalk, she knows how to keep up appearances, even in the most difficult moments. She is admired by thousands, but she remains silent, walking forward with modesty and grace. Great egret | Romania, 2022

Be good!

It is said that God created the robin and named him “red beak”. He didn’t give him any red feather, but told him he had to get it for himself. So, the robin loved with great passion, sang from all his heart, fought with such an ardour – but none of his feathers changed colour. The day when he saw Jesus crucified, he flew in a hurry and took a thorn out of His forehead with his beak. Then, the drop of blood ran down his chest and reddened his feathers. Robin | Scotland, 2022

Blue lines

I run like hell when evening comes and the ISO in the camera increases with the speed of light. But I liked that frame so much, that I forced my luck and shot with ISO 12800. Well, who will go out on the waters, from now on? Grey heron | Romania, 2022

From above

It’s not at all easy to wear such thin legs! They are hard to bend, they get in your way when running, and you even look like a puny creature, that the rest of the birds laugh at. But who can walk through the water like on boulevard and who can look from above, as from a drone, over the spectacular nature of the Delta, though? Stilt | Romania, 2022

Prayer

Even the strongest bow. We are all equal before God, and there is no shame in having faith. Sometimes, is worth showing it; maybe that’s how we’d be able to pass on hope. White-tailed eagle | Scotland, 2021
