Cruising The Shoreline

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Took this image of the oystercatcher flying along the beach on the last trip to Fort Desoto. It was a cold week and not much action.

I really like the pose and the eye contact!

[Ramon M. Casares]

I love the pose and ambient in the BG, light is nice and the open bill is a big plus! Congratulaitons!

[Mike Tracy]

I find no faults with the bird itself and really like him but also wish the horizon was not intersecting him.

[Fabs Forns]

Really beautiful flight, the calling is a plus, they are such vocal birds! Also wish he was flying lower or higher because of the shoreline.

[Stephen Stephen]

Judy beautiful wing position and exposure. The calling is a real bonus.

[Leroy Laverman]

I think this is the first oyster catcher in flight shot I've come across. Well captured. The bird is great. I might wish for a cleaner background but it's really not bad as is. Thanks for sharing this one.

A spectacular image for all the reasons already mentioned Judy Lynn. But no one seems to have complimented you on the great work you have done on the colours . . . always difficult when you have both black and white in the photo. This is a superb photo!
