    Default Snowy Plover

    Yesterday evening the wind calmed down here in Yucatan, so I went out to see the bird life at the cienega. I found a few of these little beautiful plovers that came close to check me out.

    Lovely little Plover you have here Lorant,beautiful exposure showing plenty of detail in the white feathers,particularly like the almost pastel effect on the image.

    Beauty shot, the low angle shooting works wonders, Lorant.

    Lovely image, Lorant. Wondering why you did not put Theme before the title for Shorebirds this month. Maybe a little higher and the feet would be visible. Thank you for sharing.

    Hi Lorant, love the low angle, well exposed, and I do like the light in this too.

    Good low angle which made what appears to be a less than ideal ground look good. Nice light, colours, sharpness.
