Both are real nice, Stan, but the second is my pick here. That is a great image. Background, perch with barbed wire, composition, exposure, all terrific.

Thanks much, Sharon, It's good to be active again, even for a short while.

That's my favorite, too. It came when I took a certain road despite learning the park at the end was closed. They can't close the pond, right? I appreciate your comments, Levina.

Very nice Stan! Both are nice, but that second is truly super. I love how you made the barb an artistic accent to the photo of a lovely bird.

Thanks, Lillian, but don't give me credit for the wire. It was just there.:lol:

Yes, but how many people would have cloned it out or not shown the photo because it was there. I like it, a lot!

Beautiful images of a gorgeous wader Stan. Probably my favorite of all the waders.
Love the reflection in the first image, but I still like the 2nd just a wee bit better. Just a shame you didn't have time to go remove the barbed wire off that fence post before he arrived for his "sitting". :)

Thanks for the comment. I was going to do that, but checked with my adviser (Lillian) first.:lol:
