Good day,
Iīve been a few time without posting pictures. Here is a curlew I photograhed this week. I think that itīs name in English. Comments and critics will be welcome.

Regards

Great find and setting. A lower angle would have been great, I also wish for a catchlight and might crop a bit tighter.

Agree with Axel's comments re lower angle and crop. I have tried a version cropping to remove the dark wrinkle in the water above the bird and bottom right. I like the warm colours and sharpness. A little fill flash would have added the catchlight.
