This was taken beside the jetty at Barnegat Lighthouse last Sunday. I think it is a Dunlin, but I have been wrong before. Canon 1D2, 600mm + 2x, fill flash. All comments and suggestions for improvement greatly appreciated.

Bob, looks like a Dunlin to me too. (Maybe a Western) A nice shot with the bill open.

Very nice, Bob. I really like these chunky little shorebirds.

Cool shot, Bob. I think I'd like it better with a little off the bottom.

Great shot Bob. I wish I had come shot with you guys down at the beach for a while. I didn't get anything like this. I agree with Jim about the bottom.

Nice one Bob. Dunlin it is. A little oversaturated maybe? It could be my eyes.
