    During Artie's IPT, this beauty was around us every day. Not many flight ops, but got this whole burst in focus.
    Estero Lagoon. I tend to be a bit messy with the sand (understatement) so no 1d4 to the beach :(

    Model: Canon EOS 50D
    Lens (mm): 400 (100-400L)
    ISO: 400
    Aperture: 7.1
    Shutter: 1/2000

    Fabs, I like this 'bird higher in the frame' comp you chose for this one. Most would not have done that. Light is great and so is the pose.

    Lovely photo Fabs. In addition to everything else, I also really like the bit of shadow on the wing.
    Very nice.

    Oh no...I like it :)

    I've only ever seen one avocet in my entire life and this one is a beauty.

    Exposure and sharpness are great.

    I might have cropped a hair more from the bottom?
