Hi Peter:
Nice to see you getting down nice and low to photograph your shorebirds. Your exposure looks good, you have a nice HA which shows off the bird well. I like your sand up there, which looks nothing like ours down here in Florida.
I don't see any halos, but my eyes are telling me this may be a tad oversharpened. Let's let the other chime in on that point.
I may be tempted to take a tad off the bottom and some off the right.
very nice low angle and good exposure, I see some artifacts from over sharpening and horizon needs some rotation.

Peter,
The sharpening looks OK to me, but I have been accused of oversharpening on occasion.
My preference on the BG horizon line would not have had it coincident with the beak tip and tail tip here.
Good head-angle and nice light makes this a keeper.
Very nice bird angle, low angle and environment. Exposure looks very good as well. A tad less sharpening will make it better.
Great low angle and exposure. I love that bg. IMG have some great colours too
