I have never attempted shore birds mostly. There were several Willlets working the beach in front of our house this afternoon and so I went out to see what I could do. Please give me your opinions on this shot as I don't think I am very knowlegeble as to the best way to take them. I had the lens as close to the ground as I could get it.
