great set Russ
- Comments much appreciated, SteveAgreed, such a pretty bird too....
- Thanks David - you may have guessed that I just love these guysA very nice set Russ and a good control of those whites.
- Thanks, DexsWell done Russ.
- Many thanks for comments, John. I was not sure what to expect initially when the female first lowered herself into the water (her bill was totally underwater at times), and the male was still very busy preening himself, then in a flash he mounted - and the rest is history! A privilege to witnessSuperb capture on the first one,Russ. Sharp clean shots on the others, too. These Avocets look so elegant but I've seen them being very aggressive....
On its way.- Thanks, Dexs
- I'm now finding the x2iii TC is giving me better BIF results on the 7D2 than previously. I've changed my settings, as we've discussed, and in bright UK conditions the results are more acceptable to me at 600mm. You should be even better in Crete!
- I hope the new camera arrives as planned.

- Your daughter is very astute, Daniel•
… this being the first time I realise that these elegant
things have blue legs! My daughter jokingly took the position that the colour
serves a camouflage when they stand in blue water!
- Many thanks, Ian.Nice set of this tenacious bird Russ
- Thanks Mike - I can't get enough of these birds.Excellent set Russ, great to see the flight shots
