Very nice low angle and well timed shots akhan. I've never seen a Terek Sandpiper before.

The second image appears to have a neutral cast of cyan which is tinting the morning light a bit green in appearance. I used Selective Colors and subtracted -4 cyan from the neutrals and it removed the green tint. Of course that adjustment could vary from your monitor to mine.

EDIT: I posted too soon, absolutely love the first shot in the second set.

Thanks a lot for nice comments, regarding the tint on my monitor it is alright, probably as you mentioned it could very from monitor to monitor. You did not post too soon, in fact after posting Whimbrel then i thought may be some people can confuse it with Eurasian Curlew, so i posted some of the photos of Eurasian Curlew for comparison.

Very nice shots Akhan. They look very much like the Florida birds.

Thanks a lot for nice comments
