The inhabitants of the wetland was bathed in a beautiful warm tone of the rising sun. It makes waking up early for photography very rewarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Nikon Z 9, Nikkor Z 800mm f\/6.3 VR S @ 1\/640s f\/6.3 ISO360<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I started visiting Oak Street Wetland, there has always been the presence of the Eurasian Coote.
