Had the pleasure of seeing and photographing Avocets for the first time on Black Point Drive a couple of weeks ago.
30D, 500 f/4 IS + 1.4 tc, 1/100 @ f/7.1, aperture priority, evaluative metered, iso 200, raw, canvas added to the right.

Nice light, details and exposure control. A lower angle would have been good and also if the bird would have walked toward you. I might crop a bit off the left because it is a tad too centered for my taste.
A lower angle would be better . Don't know if it was possible. The techs look good.
Hey Don, I know you have been working on the whites lately. I like these. Especially the throat area and the underside of the belly are nice. I like the ripples in the reflection too. I have not seen CS3 yet, maybe they have a angle button you can use to change the comp. :) LOL. Thanks for your contribution to our forum here and elsewhere. :)
Excellent detail and well exposed for white plumage. The darker BG further enhances the light tones of the bird. Good one!!
As has been said, a bit close to center but I really like the exposure.
Nice picture.
