    These shorebirds stop at Burlington Bay to refuel.
    Most of the time they are busy feeding.
    Early morning they were having a break
    so shooting was good.
    I cloned out an OOF stone right behind the head.
    Thanks for looking.

    Love this image too. Lovely water, bird and details, a lower shooting angle would have helped here.

    Love the yellow water and the head angle. This is a moderately worn juvenile. With that drop of water on the bill the bill looks a bit like the bill of a Spoon-billed Sandpiper. You should be so lucky :).

    Beautiful. The colors and detail are great and I really like the ripples in the water. Nice shot Karl

    Details, HA, beautiful water all look great. Good works well. I usually prefer lower angles but this higher perspective works well here.
