A little large in the frame for me, Phil. Do you have more canvas or is it filled by the other 27? Either way it is better than any curlew sandpiper shot I have got.

Phil I like the movement you have got on the wing and being a little large in the frame is not an issue with me, if I have a tiny nit it is a pity about the large stone but it would be great if everything in life was perfect :wink:.
I'm with David not got a shot of this species so well done for getting this.
Keith. :smile:
