James, you have another very fine image here, the BG is really nice with the flowing blue. Nice and sharp, good light. TFS

Love the pose and those blues! Details on the body are very well captured.
The wings look a little flat to me

James this is a nice capture...but it looks little tight crop to me...if mine I would have toned down the shine on beak...TFS

Difficult image to manage...looks like a flying bullet! A bit tight in the frame and I too would tone down some of the sheen on the bill. Not my favorite wing position (which they were fully down), but still very impressive.

I think it great, the light is fantastic and the pose is pretty good as is the wing position...You have the BIF thing down!

Hi James,
A stunning image and I agree with the praise others have given. However this is a Greater Yellowlegs---thicker bill base with a lot of paler colouring, bill gives the impression of being very slightly upturned, secondaries edged/notched white.
Regardless of this a great pic.
Best wishes,
Tom Ennis
