I love the wings of this bird. Not the best shot, but it was fun taking it.

It's not a bad shot, not perfect but you do not see many people even try the smaller birds including shorebirds in-flight very often, this shows off some wing marking nicely here, and that lens is a very sharp lens you should be able to crop this about 50% and still have a nicely detailed image.

Not a bad shot at all. They are quite beautiful in flight, aren't they? The wing pattern is gorgeous.

Nice shot. How big is the bird? It doesn't look big in the pic.

Thanks all for the comments. Leo, the bird is about 13.5" tall. This shot was taken at a good distance, and cropped a bit.
