Thats nice, the blue makes the picture contrasting with the orange legs.

I'm envious - I couldn't get close to these the other day. Lovely colours in this.

Sorry, but the foreground spoils an otherwise excellent shot, crop it off and it’s a whole new ball game.

The Redshank, itself is itself truly excellent.

Obviously on the move too.

Looks fine to me... setting perhaps a tad busy but that is how I usually see them anyway....
