Hi Liezel,
Nice capture of this group of lapwings!
I like so much the same level POV to show this good details on the birds.
It's so good and interesting the two tones beak, and how the red colour continues until the eyes.
Excellent DOF to get this soft and OOF background.
I think that you did a very good composition with this 3 birds.
Congratulations and thanks for share.
My best regards,
JM

Hi Liezel, these are a very strange looking bird. I have a couple of Plover shots in my collection but I haven't seen these guys yet. Reading your note, I can see why. You've got a great shot, capturing the 3 at once. Your focus is good and you've chosen a great depth of field to isolate that background. Great colour and detail.

Thanks, John

Hello Liezel,
Very clever to capture three of these Lapwings in one shot! I think they are so beautiful with their long yellow legs and red masks. Sharp details and lovely colours in this brilliant composition.
Many thanks, Ulla

Great shot - it os good that one of them is facing the other way becuase it allows us to see more of the birds plumage and details. The composition is very good with a great DOF and exposure and they contrast beautifully with the dried mud they are standing on.

Hello Liezel,
As you imply in your note, this shot is not perfect, but it's not far off! The composition and BG are great and the POv shows slightly different views of the two individuals on the left.
This is one of the best shots of the Red-wattled Plover that I have seen.
Well done and TFS!
