Oystercatcher Cruising The Beach

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Taken on one of my trips to Fort Desoto. They are always a thrill to see and and such interesting birds to observe.

Cool flight image Judy expecially with the beak open. Good wing position. Would have been nice that the beach to water line was not coincident with the bird's body. Boy how many of those do I have. :)

Great flight capture, Judy. Love the wings and open bill. I've been trying to get something like this for a while but don't have any nearly as good - well done.

I like the calling pose, wing position and eye contact. I might give it a bit more room.

I love the up-swept wings and open bill Judy. I still have to try and add this species to my collection someday.

Fantastic image Judy Lynn. Lovely and sharp. I don't mind the BG at all. :)

[Stu Bowie]

Super flying posture, together with the open beak. I would maybe give him a bit more room to fly into, but still very well captured Judy.

[Manos Papadomanolakis]

Great pose/eye contact and beautiful colors!!!

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

Really nice bird and image Judy.

I don't mind about the BG but would clone out the light stripe.

Great job overall.
