Post by: Glenn Bartley on December 13, 2012, 10:10:50 am

Knowing avocet habitat, I know you must have been down and very dirty indeed! Nice payoff.

Perfectly focused bird and buttery smooth background... Fantastic, once again!

I cannot top what Francois has said.
Words fail me when I view your photography.
