Just when shorebird migration is all but wrapped-up up here along comes this surprise late lingerer Dunlin. It was quite the willing subject as I was able to work it for a long time. It was still hanging around when I had to leave :-) This image was created when it decided to walk right by me as I was laying down in frozen mud/goose dropping mixture (thank goodness it was frozen!!)
Lovely portrait, Daniel. Excllent BG and sharpness. Really like the drop of water forming on the tip of the bill.
