Redshank Calling
1D2N, 600mm f4 is x1.4TC, 1/640s, f8, iso 200

Another shot of the redshank protecting its territory. I would have preferred some clouds in background - but mustn't grumble!

I wouldn't grumble. Very good composition. The calling captured here really gives the shot some life. The light looks a little on the strong side but I don't think it detracts too much :toast:
