I am back from Florida. It was an amazing trip. For the first time I visited all those famous photography places. The best and most productive was Fort Myers, especially Little Estero Lagoon. Here is one of four American Oystercatchers I was lucky to see and photograph for the first time. I was suprised how big they are.

Nice one, Fero! :lol:
Excellent exposure and you were lucky to be shooting this close ... Or is this normal in Florida anyway?

Exposure, perch and bg are perfect, IMO. This is wonderful. :D

Beautiful shot, Fero. I really like the colours and detail here and the composition and background are really nice. Nice to see you back posting :)
