~ Photography Lovers Community Curation ~

Hello Photography Lovers! Welcome to another curation report featuring the community HotShots! where we have compiled some of your amazing photos to show off to the world!

Please take some time to review the entire post and go check out the rest of the images of features you like. Since we only share one featured image of many from your amazing posts, some of the best images are within the rest of the posts and we don't want you to miss the beauty!

Plus, you never know when your time to get featured may come and we are sure you would enjoy the same level of community support! So, make sure to support your fellow photographers because without you all, this community would not be possible.

Now, after curating diligently and sifting through the community's posts, here are the curation selections to share with you all. Keep up the great work for your chance to be in the next round of curation!

I love that this photo took Today's Featured HotShot. This little bird, called Carta Cuba in Spanish and Cuban tody in English, is about 10 cm tall and is such a tiny, funny little thing, because of the sound it makes when it flaps its wings (it’s almost like it’s farting!🤣). It looks like a brightly colored plush toy. It’s an endemic bird of Cuba.



The bird is amazing and the captured photograph of it was too! Thank you for giving us the cool context of this wonderful creature and for your contribution to this round of curation!

Thanks for the support @castleberry
