I Take Pictures Of Birds So That People Can See Them Like Never Before

I photograph birds in a studio, which is set up in nature. My own photographic methods are at the center of my work. A key point when photographing birds is the proximity. I work together with scientists, who study birds and capture them with mist nets. My studio is close to the mist nets out in nature. After the photo shoot, I can easily release the birds simply by opening the studio netting that connects the studio to the camera.

"This little kingfisher seems oddly proportioned, rather like a sparrow with the bill of a heron. Living along streams and rivers near the Mexican border, it is often overlooked, because it tends to perch low among vegetation near the water; its sharp ticking callnotes may give it away. When moving up or downstream, the Green Kingfisher flies fast, with quick wingbeats, very low over the water."

It utters a low note, like the clicking together of two small stones.

La destrucción del Bosque de Hudson a manos de los emprendimientos inmobiliarios (avalados por el HCD de Berazategui) pone en peligro a estas hermosas aves. Galería de Imágenes.

La zona costera de Hudson se caracteriza por ser de “alta fragilidad ecológica”. Se trata de una de las regiones de mayor biodiversidad de la provincia de Buenas Aires, cuyos humedales y selva dan cobijo a una gran variedad de animales y plantas, las cuales se ven atacadas por el avance del hombre.

 Así, los negocios inmobiliarios de las grandes empresas y la permisividad de los concejales (movido seguramente por onerosos intereses) de Berazategui, ponen en riesgo un invaluable ecosistema.

 A continuación, ofrecemos una galería de imágenes a cargo de Matías Cabezas, a quien agradecemos por ceder estas hermosas fotografías. Las mismas dan cuenta de la gran biodiversidad que habita el lugar.
