LOL.. I really like the peeking over the tail shot :)

All the killdeers seem to have left Manitoba. I haven't seen or heard any for a few weeks now.

They are all very good shots Wayne. The first shows how good the angle is on the bird, the second another good angle with the eye peeping over and nice reflection. And the last is a superb shot, well done.

Very nice Wayne with the last one being my favourite...very sharp. The first one has quite a bit of appeal for me as well...nice pose, colors, habitat.

Nice collection Wayne. Oddly enough; another bird that has escaped me...
You managed to expose him/her nicely. Good details and the posing is great..

The tail is obviously the attention grabber in the second shot, therefore the softish eye is no big deal here...awesome colours too! Great classic Killdeer photo in the third shot!
