Blog – Site news


The Blog – Site news, articles and posts on my photographic outings in the field, starting with the most recent. In this section “Over time” you can follow the Camargue birds over the different seasons.

Many articles are devoted to a particular bird. I give you some indications on its identification, its place of life and reproduction, and its protection status… These articles are obviously accompanied by a photo gallery dedicated to this bird.
