Nice! I was photographing birds last weekend, and thought I had sensor dust and then realized that it was bugs.

Great series, Trev. I guess there were flies!:eek: I have never seen an Avocet in shallow water or anywhere near that close!

Perfect shots all, Trevor. The background is so complementary to the bird.

Really nice set there; I think catching the water moving with its foot in #3 is the big winner for me
