    Hi

    I went to check out the Avocet chick that I have been watching since it was an egg; the chick is fine and about to fledge. I couldnt resist taking this of the parent bird (not sure male/female. Hope you like it. Wish for a little lower but not possible from the hide.

    Good exposure and sharpness. Perfect HA. I agree for a lower angle, but I know it wasn't possible from the hide. Still very nice. I do wish the mud mound was not there though as it keeps competing for my attention. Well done!
