Flamingo time! --- Eng/Esp

I was vacationing in the Santa Lucía beach area, in Camagüey, Cuba. I've been always aware of the bird life in that area, especially the groups of flamingos that live near the swamps and salt flats that exist there. I came prepared with my Sigma 150-600 telezoom attached to my Nikon D750. Fortunately, I had the pleasure of surprising a small group closer than I expected, and I was even able to isolate one in mid-flight and take quite accurate photos. The two photos at the end were the first I took of a flamingo in the wild, the day before. What a beautiful animal!

Estuve vacacionando en la zona de la playa Santa Lucía, en Camagüey, Cuba. Siempre estuve pendiente de la vida de las aves en esa zona, sobre todo los grupos de flamencos que viven cerca de los pantanos y la salinas que allí existen. Fui preparado con mi telezoom Sigma 150-600 acoplado a mi Nikon D750. Afortunadamente tuve el placer de sorprender a un pequeño grupo más cerca de lo que me esperaba, e incluso pude aislar a uno en pleno vuelo y hacerle fotos bastante precisas. Las dos fotos del final fueron las primeras que le hice a un flamenco en estado salvaje, el día anterior. Qué bello animal!

Thanks for the opportunity!
