These two Avocets kept having a 'spat' over territory. There was probably a nest nearby but I did not see any evidence of it. Photograph taken late evening.

Muy buena la captura. La iluminacion regular, pero no se puede controlar todo...

Very nice wildlife action shot Peter.
Lovely pose of the birds while they are chasing eachother.
Composition is beautiful with the diagonal line of the wings.
Seems to me that the image is a little under exposed.
Did try to adjust that in Photoshop.
Hope you like it.
Best regards, Harry

great pic, tfs Ori

Hi Peter,
Superbly capturing these flying avocets. Well timed shot, lovely pose of the two birds.

Hi Peter,
The colours are a bit dull.
On the other hand the decisive moment...I mean the captured in flight action is outstanding.
Well composed.

Hi Peter,
Very nice shot with the dreat diagonal compo!
I'm agree with Harry (Proframe)

Hi Peter...good dramatic shot of the Avocets... Well captured as well considering the falling light and a bonus getting them in the focal plane. Only ever seen one of these (nesting) and the wardens wouldn't let me anywhere near it : (
Best, Brat.

Hello Peter.

Eccellent image, nice composition.

Regards.
