So many... I love the penguin? looking up @1:50, pink flamingoes @2:13, the owl @5:15 is absolutely stunning, incredible shot @6:04, Pelican @6:45, backlit shot @ 8:50, owls @8:53.
Wow!!! Beautiful images- inspiring!!! . Impressive as I know it’s so difficult to photograph birds. Thank you for sharing wonderful photos Pangolin team!!
Lots of quality entries! My favorite would probably change each day. Today it's the Green Heron. So hard to find them on a suitable perch and then to have the perfect timing like that made that a lifetime shot to me.
As someone who has been a professional photographer for 50 years, and has settled back into wildlife photography in semi retirement, I could probably discard a third, but the quality is so high you would need to pay me to try and cut back to the top ten. I would need to consider technical competence, difficulty of subject etc, absolutely fantastic images
Big congrats!👍 😊👌 All amazing photos finalist really you all are so lucky. All birds so unique wish you everyone best of luck😊👍🌷 I also love photography i like to capture picture i enjoy a lot.. Thank you
Dear Pangolin Team, thanks for these wonderfull pictures and chosing one of mine too. I am very honored too. But I could not have taken it without your support and knowledge. Hope to see you soon again in Chobe.
Wow....no idea how the judges will manage to choose just one winner! At least 10 could easily be winners: the shoebill, the pair of owls, the pair of bee-eaters, a few penguin shots, the kingfisher shots! All just so good....I have got lots of photos to take to get closer to this level. Well done to all finalists.
Congrats to all my fellow finalists … I am very honoured and puzzled that „two“ of my images were chosen … well, that keeps me going ! Overall, a fabulous collection of stunning images offering me a great deal of inspiration!
So happy to see one of my pictures in here! Thanks pangolin for hosting an amazing competition. Honoured have one of my pics be part of such an incredible collection!😊🎉 ( 1:51 )
Hey, at 5:24 there is my image of Penduline tit which unfortunately cannot be awarded as it has been previously awarded in a competition before the ending of the submission period for pangolin photo challange (October) I forgot to remove it sorry. Thank You for preselecting it tho! Good luck to all the rest
Hello this is a bit off topic: Is there a camera/lens combination that can quickly and reliably focus on a small bird that flies towards the camera from 8 or 10 meters?
It's good to see one of my pictures at 8:53 among all of these beautiful shots...Thanks to Pangolin wildlife photography team & best of luck for all finalists...
So which image do you think will win this round? Lets us know below and check back on Sunday when we announce the winner!
Pelican beak... That is some stunning shot and wonderfully thought capture.
All the images were amazing. The 2 that struck me the most are the Penguin in a snow storm and the bird holding the frog in its beak.
9:26 Love the bokeh and colours
@@BasavaKumar I agree. It's a wonderful photo!!
The Great Grey Owl Landing with one hidden in the Tree trunk - but you have your work cut out - lots of great images
I lean towards the owl in the lupine, but that's because I particularly like owls. Too many fabulous to make a real choice! Beautiful!!
Absolutely fabulous ! Each image deserves to be a winner. Very inspirational.
What a fabulous collection of images, congratulations to all the finalists!🤗🤩
Amazing arent they? Can you pick a winner?
The Kite with the Mouse at 6:19

I love the owl at 5:33 and the kingfisher in the rain at 7:00 although there are many other amazing images!
Its a very competitive round this one!
Adeline penguin,bee eaters, so many needed a name next to some so could put down.
For me, the photo of the Jacana at 3.18 is the best: original and well composed.
Lovely image!
