Holding his own in the fast moving water is what I notice first about this lovely shot. Very nice tones and textures of the river with a real sense of motion. Very well captured, Debra.
Thanks Heather. I was trying to get down a bit lower but I was afraid of scaring off the bird. I was excited to see him standing in the current.
Thanks very much Jane. I was rushing hoping that I would at least get one shot in before the bird moved out of the rapidly moving water.
Beautyful bird Debra. Lot of details and texture on this shot. I use to see the smaler sandpiper. The rushing waters and rocks gives a nice surrounding to the big bird. Very nice catch.
Thanks very much Yves. I was quite happy to find a Greater Yellowlegs and even more so with the bird standing in the rippling water.
