This wading bird is new to my gallery, it was shot from a hide, & the camera lens was at maximum extension x30.
These birds are common to the British Isles, & most of the world where they are regularly found on coastlines, & marshland. Their diet in the UK mainly consists of mussels, cockles, & worms if inland.

Good post Phil but this bird is a bit confused as it does not seem to know the difference between Oysters and Rocks. Perhaps it's on a Diet.

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By. Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
Haven't you heard of the rock diet EJ? apparently it's very filling.

Good clarity for full zoom, Phlossie.
Your camera is a keeper for sure.
I wouldn't want this bird for my waiter.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
I really like the poise, and facial look.Phil, your pictures are always so sharp with good clarity. This fits the bill perfectly.

I would travel only by horse, if I had the choice. ~ Linda McCartney ~
That's great detail for the zoom range!...Like all fixed zooms...a good steady hand (or window ledge) is good!
Nice one on the catcher Phil

"Never stop photographing. It is very likely that your best photograph has not yet been captured"
I have tried to get closer but hey are very elusive. Nice image Phil. Good sharpness for a 30x zoom.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
The image is so sharp considering the zoom. The colours are deep and clean. Does it know its head's on backwards?

I'd like his diet except for the worms! This is great detail for that zoom level - I never got that good with my Lumix zoom at 30x

Another outstanding capture, love the detail and especially the look on his face

Have a Beautiful Bright Day, Skates
That is a very clear and well taken photo!
I have only ever seen them walking along a beach.
We have 2 types in NZ, one similar to the European one and another called the Variable Oyster Catcher which is only found here.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
