Great shots of one of my favorite shore birds. They remind me of a cross between a Tucan and an Oystercatcher.

Thanks Karen. I don’t know why it does that. If you do the math it’s close to 1/3200. Which is what I shot.

Thanks. I was too lazy to attempt the math! LOL! When I see shots as nice as these, I try to learn from them!
