A nice portrait of this Turnstone Phil with bags of detail, personally I'm not a fan of Turnstones in grass, I know they are often seen in these situations in coastal towns, its just to me it doesn't look right, but that is really personal I suppose...

I think I would have liked more of a profile as the bill is tending to be lost in the general plumage.

Not keen on the foreground, but you know that, but there is sufficient space for the virtual feet.

Nice capture, well taken.

Nice shot Phil, maybe a bit more head turn away from camera to get the bill, but good shot nonetheless :smile:
