I do love the graphic quality that your shorebirds combined with your gray backgrounds make. Good exposure, composition, detail. Well done as usual, KK.

Marvelous slim pose in flight with wings almost level. The bird appears as though in contemplation.

Excellent!!! I hope I can capture some of the species in Beidaihe and will be nearly as good as yours in the future.
We will ask you some tips for photographing shorebird when we decide when to go back home.
