Pretty much perfect. I love your shorebird stuff. The bird looks pretty worn. Great low angle, light, and walking pose.

Agree with Aidan. Interesting how the early morning light gives the bird a very different color from the grayish appearance Semis generally have as the day goes on - a source of potential ID confusion if one isn't careful.

Nice pose with the raised foot. I like the water color-it really makes this one stand out.

Lovely light and colors and I love the raised foot as well. Fantastic picture IMO. Thanks for sharing.
