[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Limosa limosa, is a large shorebird. It is a relatively long-legged member of the godwit genus.
Adults have blue-grey legs and a very long straight bill with a slight upward curve and pink at the base. The neck, breast and belly are brick red in breeding plumage, off white in winter. The back is mottled grey.

These birds forage by probing on mudflats or in marshes. In short vegetation, they may pick up insects by sight. They mainly eat insects and crustaceans, but also eat parts of aquatic plants. They are much more likely to be found on freshwater than the coastal Bar-tailed Godwit. In flight, they can be distinguished from the Hudsonian Godwit by their white wing linings with black edges.

Merhaba Mehmet,
Detayları çok başarılı bir pozlamayla ustaca kaydedilmiş enfes bir çamurçulluğu karesini paylaşmışsınız. Renkler ve keskinlik süper olmuş. Tebrikler.

A finely formed specimen caught in a foraging mode Mehmet, perfectly exposed and focused under very favourable illumination conditions, displaying good plumage and colouration features. TFS this fine image.

Hello Mehemet,

Fantastic photo of this interesting bird.
Nice colours with excellent detail.
Lighting and composition are splendid.

Karadenizin mavi suları da kompozisyona karışınca daha bir güzel olmuş. netlik ve ışık son derece güzel. sol üstteki kaya da kompozisyona iyi yakışmış. eline sağlık Mehmet bey, güzel çekim olmuş. iyi akşamlar, selamlar.

Hi Mehmet,
What a phenomenally long beak this shorebird has.
Excellent sharpness and light.
Nice POV showing the pretty patterns on its plumage,
and the length of that beak!!!
TFS. : )
