So we found small groups of shorebirds along a large creek on the dropping tide. This juvenile Western Sandpiper image was created with the the Canon 800mm f/5.6L IS lens, the 1.4X III TC, and the EOS-1D Mark IV. Micro-adjustment went from +10 to -4 after the body was repaired after being dropped. ISO 400. Evluative metering +2/3 stop: 1/800 sec. at f/9 in Av mode.
To learn of my long journey from Katmai National Park to my Mom's home in Holbook, Long Island, NY click here. And yes, there is a very nice Mom and cub image there as well.
Small crop + bill shine elimination and bill clean-up.
Don't be shy; all comments welcome.

I do like the colours on this fellow, and how the far bank follows the shape of his body.
