Low angle,BG and warm light all come together to make a beautiful image.
I like to watch these plovers and you did a good job showing this one off. I notice several round whiteish-circles in the background -- especially under the tail --
Lovely image. Great low angle and details. Would maybe give this a slight CWR.
Scott, Thanks for your comment the white circles are OOF pieces of shell have not yet decided if I am going to take the time to clone them out.I notice several round whiteish-circles in the background -- especially under the tail --

Great low angle, details, and exposure. Looks a bit too contrasty IMO. I might also crop a bit off the top.
Keep them coming!
Nice low angle and beautiful fluffed up look. Nice exposure and sharpness. Another vote for a slight crop from top.
Awesome pose and details Don. Great job.
While I slight crop from the top would put the head into more common the rule of thirds I like to use on occasion the golden mean which I did here.Another vote for a slight crop from top.
