Was at the Albany Mudflats again yesterday. Got some shots of
some Killdeer and other Plovers. I was using the 20D and 400 f5.6L,
ISO 400, f6.3-7.1, AV mode.

Good stuff George, #3 looks like a Yellowleg bird. I also love your Heron shot, it's very sharp... :)

I absolutely love the mud and mosses in the second shot! #3 was correctly identified. Shots 1, 2, 5, 7 and 8 all could've benefitted from some negative exposure compensation as you had to deal with some strong sunlight. All nicely composed...
