    Great view of this plover. Nice you caught the water receding. Like the low angle and the framing.

    Love this look at one of my favorite shore birds. The breaking wave as the last one goes out makes it for me. TFS

    Interesting molting plumage, and the breaking wave along the top is perfect! I'd give the image a bit of CCW rotation - the "sloping" bottom seems to indicate some needed.

    I like the composition and low angle, nicely presented, for me the image appears a little cold.
