    Default Curved Billed Curlew

    One More Shot from My trip to corpus Christi.

    I was lucky to have some amazing golden Light just before the sunset.

    I was standing over a cliff looking at the Gulf of mexico and I heard this beauty on my right. Luckily I was holding my rig and knealed slowly and shot this handheld. the BG is the Gulf of Mexico.

    Love the tuft. Beautiful light and habitat. Isn't this a long billed curlew?

    Nice low angle, light, techs. I too love the little "mohawk" crown. The raised foot adds alot. Way to take advantage of the opportunity!
