Black Bellied Plover

Shot under cloudy conditions this morning in Gulfport. It's not critically sharp, largely because of the light conditions, but I liked the fact that the complete reflection was in smooth water.

Very nice reflection and I also like the water drop on the tip of the beak.

SWEET image - nice detail in the bird, great pose with the elevated leg, and interesting waTer.

Bill I like the subject captured in stride along with its reflection. I also like the hatchwork banding right at the plover's feet.
