What a neat bird - I love the "plover" plumage on this!

Great exposure Rob, the eye just grabs me here as does the BandW plumage pattern. Really nice perch and overall habitat. Very cool and no nits.

Wonderful exposure given the whites and blacks. I find the perch quite interesting and the eye stands out perfectly
