This image is also from last Saturday on board James Shadle's Hooptie Deux at Alafia Banks. While Artie went on a lone Spoonbill mission, James and myself kept on laying low in the mud and stayed with the shorebirds (not much else going on anyhow).
The little plovers did not get too close to the water, so it was difficult to get a clean shot of them.
Canon 800mm f/5.6L IS with the 1.4X II TC and the EOS-1D Mark IV. ISO 400. Evaluative metering: 1/800 sec. at f/8 set manually.
Cleaned up the beach, removed some highlights from the bill.
