Common Sandpiper mid call, showing the classic sign of spittle between the upper and lower mandibles, photographed on the same wall as my last Snipe shot.

7D, 500f4LIS +1.4TC WWS Bean Bag ( Full Frame )

Thanks for the feedback on the Snipe shot and thanks for looking.

Andy...:)
 
Nice to see it mid-call ... that's a very productive wall you've got there! :D
 
Very nice, you've captured the moment really well. Nice to see one posing in this way too, well done...again!

Very nice, I would actually say perfect! (y)
 
Too much blur in the right leg! :p.................





but apart from that, yes, its perfect (y) :D
 
'where's this f*****g wall'..bloody hate it,going to pull it down.

I think he's got a mobile trailer with the wall built on it, and just pulls the trailer around with his landrover looking for birds.:D.


Lovely shot Andy.
 
Thanks for the very kind comments, really pleased you all like it :)

I must admit, even though this particular wall is only 500yds long, it really is very productive ( in a photography sense ) and just about every species of upland bird perches on it, but none more than my favourite the Snipe.
 
No crit needed, I'd say that's as perfect a shot as you could get! Excellent sharpness and a lovely background.
