, 1/250 f/7.1, ISO 320, tripod. Specie: Ardea cinerea

Cos'ha catturato quell'airone? Sembra una trota, no è un cavedano. Dai, prendi il binocolo e guarda; adesso lo vedo chiaramente è un luccio. Un luccio, ma sei impazzito? I tuoi occhi che una volta riconoscevano a distanza un luì piccolo da un luì verde, ora non sono più in grado di distinguere un'aquila da un passero. E poi, anche il cervello cosa ti dice? Un airone non può catturare un luccio, è un pesce da fondale, non è come una lasca che si fa prendere risalendo la corrente, non è come una trota che si nasconde sotto un sasso ben sapendo che prima o poi dovrà uscirne concedendosi al suo predatore, non è un cavedano che si fa beccare con la sola testa nascosta tra le infiorescenze della lingua d'acqua. Il luccio è il luccio, è il Re, non può morire preda del Cenerino. Tempo fa li pescavo con l'alborella in quella lanca, ti ricordi, sotto il ponte di ferro di Oleggio, stavano sempre sul fondo a tre, quattro metri, ma ora le alborelle sono scomparse. Eppure è un luccio, sono certo, andiamo a vedere. Dobbiamo attraversare il campo di segale per arrivare sulla riva, speriamo che nessuno ci veda. Maledizione, io sono allergico alle graminacee, e comincio a starnutire a raffica, dieci ,venti e più starnuti, è un record. Così l'airone è scomparso, abbandonando la colazione. Ora camminiamo in silenzio fino a raggiungere la meta e, sorpresa, comprendiamo subito il motivo di tale cattura. Il canale è stato prosciugato per le consuete manutenzioni ed è rimasta una piccola pozza stracolma di pesci persici, di barbi, trote, e persino qualche piccolo luccio. Ci guardiamo e un sorriso, appena accennato palesa le nostre intenzioni. Dopo un'ora il capanno è pronto, invisibile. La mattina seguente alle cinque in punto siamo nascosti e riempiamo la memoria di foto. Lancio uno sguardo fiero al mio "socio" . Per questa volta ho vinto io, ma so già che lui vorrà prendersi quanto prima una sostanziosa e crudele rivincita.

A magnificent detail and management of light without comment .. even if it had been embalmed and taken in a studio, it would have been so perfect. Congratulations Cecilia

Congratulations to you, (as always impeccable hors categorie), but above the heron. A catch, however, very difficult and demanding: " THE " fish, meat silky and delicate flavor, proud and indomitable fighter.
Ah, me too, before you repent, I was a great hunter Lucci, not carp, not tench, barbel and chub, which I abhorred all, but only Lucci, invited with absolute rigor almost exclusively with the bleak living (horror! ever, if they go to look for, if you want to han ...), which only allowed you to catch "over 10Kg: the encounter with the" beasts ", but in my present condition, it is always something that I can never forget . (hello and sorry for the "pippone")
