Headline: Bird Photographer of the Year (BPOTY) Winners

Caption: Mixed Gulls. Kuwait. Photographer: Mohammad Khorshed, Kuwait. Category: Birds in the Environment. GOLD AWARD WINNER. Photographer's Story: ‘Low tide reveals the beauty of the coastal environment. The intertidal zone is also a good feeding area for seabirds, and so a lot of gulls and herons gather because of the abundance of life. I waited for many days to get the perfect combination of elements for the photo I had in mind: still water at low tide, beautiful clouds and of course the birds. I took this photo using a drone and the magic lasted just a short time before the rising tide altered the scene.’ DJI drone with FC6310 built-in camera. 8.8mm (equivalent to 24mm) focal length; 1/500 second; f/6.3; ISO 800.
