[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I don't have much luck with birds, quick little fellows, so in order to get the odd one that shows up, I do take them from the house through a window.

This sandpiper stopped long enough to leave his calling card and gave me just enough time to snap away.

Hi Dot

Considering the fact they will not pose for you, you have done well. I have tried quite a few times but I was never lucky.

Have a nice week and TFS

hi dot,
you are lucky it stayed still long enough.
i tried a few days ago to capture one for a pic. all it did was hop like a demented spring.

maybe he needed a rest after leaving his present.

nicely done.
Brian.

Hi Dot

A tranquil lake-side setting, with good sharpness & dof, on the solitary bird. Good layering, in this superb wildlife shot. Tfs!
