I love watching these little birds follow the waves running like wind up toys. I captured this image at Ft. De Soto County Park in Pinellas County, Florida. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Such photogenic little shorebirds. I like the raised foot, and the slightly unusual placement in the frame, which shows the beach textures.

Nice raised foot i could see a version with the bird lower in the frame.

Wonderful capture, Joe. Beautiful handling of the blacks and whites, and very nice detail.
