Plenty of these on the local beach at the moment. This one having an unusually quiet moment instead of the normal running round as if its tail is on fire! Taken hand held while lying on the beach.

Nice low angle, Rich. I like the included stuff in the water, but would probably clone out the OOF ones next to the reflected head's forehead and across the leg. I t may be an illusion, but it looks like it may need a tiny bit of CCW rotation. Great feeding pose, and I like the refelcting water highlights streaking across the bird.
Not had a chance for a bash at these little beauties yet, when I travel over to Norfolk the beaches are packed with people. Photographers at first light, dog walkers mid morning, nightmare.
All looks good to me other than the oof shell? near the head, not major, but it does catch the eye a bit.
Nice work, like the Blog page too, some top stuff on show.
