I have not been able to go to the marsh in over a month. So decided to look through my files and found this guy. Taken in November 2013. The tide was out and you can see the oysters in the marsh.
This is a really tight crop...because I almost missed the shot as he tried to fly right out of the frame :P
Huge impact with this one, Ellie :thumbup: :thumbup:

Really nice shot!! :thumbup:
Wonderful shot. These guys can be such a pain to shoot as they frighten so easily and usually take off if you get anywhere near them.

Thanks fawlty. I appreciate you taking the time to look and commenting.
Fortunately, most of the birds on the marsh are pretty used to people walking/ driving by on the causeway. I was actually looking at another bird farther away when I saw this guy taking off. I was pretty close. So had to bring my zoom in and get him in focus and click really quickly. This time it worked. Often it doesn't.

I have a very large folder of "gone birds!"
Great catch!! And an awesome photo, especially knowing the circumstances!
