Very different from the last one. Much calmer sense from the photo. Great job.

Debra Plett

Thanks Jane. I did like the calmness to tjism8mage with the fall reflecting colours along the top edge.

Yves Langlois

Nice. A different composition with more calm water and green reflection. I like the mood on that one.

Debra Plett

Thanks very much Yves, your comments are always appreciated.

Description
I believe this is a nonbreeding/immature Greater Yellowlegs. The juveniles have crisp markings and are browner. Picture taken where the Red River floodway empties back into the Red River in Lockport Manitoba.
