The Common Gallinule (Common Moorhen) is a bird often found out on the water.
Finding these Common Gallinule at Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge has been fun.
This photo does a good job showcasing the environment where the Common Gallinule live. On a pond. Behind some foliage. Out on the water with other waterfowl like ducks.
I also like the way the Common Gallinule is looking down almost like it is watching its reflection in the water that is visible in the photo.
Photo details: Nikon D500. Nikon 300mm f/4. Focal length 420mm. ISO 400. 1/4000 sec. f/5.6.
