    Taken at an extremely low Oregon coast tide where I could get
    out to the nesting shorebirds.
    These guys are bullets, so it was fun shooting them.

    Dan nice angle on the bird, prey is a big bonus, the BG is a bit distracting as it dissects the frame, but I still like it.

    Nice catch this murre has. Like the pose and the detail on the bird is pretty nice. The background is what it is.

    One of those birds that you don't realise how quick they are until they buzz past you, so well done on getting this one sharp and on an incoming flight angle. Prey item is a big bonus. Nit picky wise there is a little noise that could be addressed, but all told a very good result

    Bird and prey are spot on, but the background not quite so good.
