I seldom get to this beach, but here is a proud willet I found there quite awhile back. It watched me during its entire stroll -- about 10-15 yards before flying away. This bird is common in these parts, and I think they are very pretty. Any suggestions?

Wendell, Nice pose and stroll ! The composition is nice-might tone down the little bit of bright spots. Well done!

Hi Wendell - like the pose, youhae a good head angle and sharp details. - good job :)

Does appear that there are some hot spots that are worth toning down a bit - only other thing I would have done would be to lay flat on the sand and shoot.

keep them coming :)

I like the bg Wendell Does make for a different image Fine position for the bird and do like the stride !! Excellent !!!

Nice capture Wendell. Agree with above comments. Like the raised foot. Dark BG compliments your light bird.

Beautiful bird and details. The colorful BG is a little distracting to me. Maybe desaturate the BG a little.
