A set of three volumes, richly illustrated, is now available on natural habitats, species, and sites protected by the Natura 2000 program in Lorraine. This major work was coordinated primarily by F. Schwaab and S. Muller. The book is published by the DREAL Lorraine. I contributed to the illustration of  the "Species" volume, which about half is devoted to birds, along with other photographers A. Audevard, F. Cahez, D. Collin, H. Michel, M. and V. Munier, with about 20 pictures including a dozen full-page (Slavonian Grebe, Lesser Spotted and Spotted Eagle, Crakes, Black Stork, Purple Heron, Black-winged Stilt, etc.)

Here are some of the photos published in this book:

Little Crake, Greece (Lesvos), 300 mm 2.8, F5, Provia 100

Spotted Eagles, juv., normal and fulvescens, Oman, Nikon digital, 600 mm f4

Black Stork, Spain, 600 mm f4, F5, Provia 100
