I could go for some short trip this last weekend for photographing on the very south of Brazil, in an amazing place for birding.
I'll post a few images, starting with this Pectoral Sandpiper

Nice image Jefferson. I like the wings up witch implies motion and action. Also nice job with the exposure on this, looks like overcast skies with little to no light to work with. You handled it well!

I like the raised wings and the head on angle, Jefferson.  Nice job getting the focus where it needed to be.

I like the feeling on this one.  The windswept action of the wings against the water in the background makes this a dynamic photo.

Love the scruffy look of this bird, Jefferson.  Your catch of the wings up pose is great as well
