Jim, sweet shot of this Killdeer, nice and low, HA, BG, and catchlight are nice and you even got the feet.

Top shot, perfect pose and good use of the narrow DOF to soften the background.

Well done Jim, i like everything about your image. The killdeer is so elegant, just the right opening for the feet amidst the rocky foreground. I would like to see the bird to the right rather than center if you have room... Just would like to see the lonely weed and beyond stretched out in front of him. Wonderful IQ!

Very nice image! I really like the low angle and the nice pose by the bird. The little plant by the side is a nice touch that adds to the composition.
