Long-billed Dowitcher

Recently photographed this dowitcher feeding a Merced NWR. I took a series of shots to capture its feeding and "caught" this one with a water droplet at the end of the beak. Thanks for viewing.

I like the pose, water drop and water ring reflection. The image does look soft at this smaller size and a lower angle would of been better if possible.

Nice timing! He looks like he was watching you too! Just a hair more space behind the tail would be nice if you have it.
