Great shot of the whimbrel.... they're quite difficult to get. Send it in to the OFO.

"To be a better nature photographer, be a better naturalist.The more you know about nature,the more you will see to photograph. Develop a deeper compassion for the world around us, and live by an ethic of concern for the subject matter."
