Common Sandpiper
A calling Common Sandpiper, photographed on the same morning and the same bit of dry stone wall as the Snipe in my last post.
7D, 500f4LIS+1.4TC, Bean Bag, from vehicle.
1/640th @ f8 -1/3rd iso400 ( 98% of Full Frame )
Thanks for the feedback on my Snipe shot and thanks for looking.
( Most of my shots have been posted on another forum, so apologies if you have seen them before )
Andy...
Don't apologise Andy worth another look anytime, looks nicely exposed and you have a super BG which I really like, calling bird is icing on the cake, smashing job.
Cheers Keith.
Well done Andy. Its lookin good
Great looking image, like everything about it.
I agree with others, very nice shot. If the photography gods were smiling on you the right foot would have been still for the capture but then you would probably have missed the call. Well done. Regards, Ian.
A lovely bird,
love the open beak and saliva. Sweet light and clean BG. The rock full of lichens goes so well with the image. TFS
You sure know how to get these cool birds on cool lichen covered rocky perches against great bgs. I like the calling pose and the motion blur in the leg. Very nice work Andy.
nice shot,love the perch and BG,nice calling pose,chewing gum as well
Here you are ;) I only look in wildlife mostly :)
Very nice Andy, open beak adds a new dimension, really hope we get to meet up in July. Should I get my car realtree'd? :)
Hi Andy, lovely image, the lichen stone really gives character to the scene, like the slightly blurred, raised leg and 'elasticated' spit joining the bill.

Super shot Andy, love the clean BG and sharpness of the bird as well as the pose... if anything just a bit of a pity that the one foot is a little blurry. TFS
