Lovely BG, sharpness, and one-legged pose. I agree with Peter on the crop, and would tone down the whites more. I also wish for a tad more of a head turn.

Great species, great BG, great low angle and great sharpness.
Light angle and comp although are not ideal, more room to the right would've been better IMO.
I just looooove lapwings!!! Congratulations!
