Nice flight shot Alister--great wing position. It's a tad soft on my monitor and there's a slight halo around the bill.

Really great pose you captured Alister and I love the BG! Was this a large crop?

Hey Alister,

Pretty cool, looks like it's just changing it's mind about where to land.

As in your earlier Kentish Plover post, this one looks as though it might have been jpeg-re-saved or something.
