Hi Sky,
Wine was not so effective or lens work alone:-) Very nice view with excellent composition.

Hi Sky

Great shot, I really like the simple composition and the pose of the Bird looking into the distance, like the soft pastal colours too, hope you enjoyed your wine.

TFS Hilary :o)

Hi Again Sky,
Maybe not the best quality, but is interesting for me. the bird is very common in South America and in TN, is a southern lapwing (tero in Argentina and Uruguay, quero-quero in Brazil and Avefria tero in Spain). You can see lots of them in South America gallery and mine.
Best regards
Hernán

Hello Sky

I got quite a chuckle from this post.Just wondering how my shots would look after a couple of wobbly-pops.You have done well ,The South American cruise is shots are wonderful.I have to admit ,this bird looks as if you denied him a drink.He has turned his back on you like in a huff.TFS

Helo Sky !
i never saw this bird befire, he is very beautiful and I like his long legs ! I also like your composition, showiing the natural environment of the bird. Nice details, natural colors and also a beautiful pose of the bird, turning his head just enough for us to see him. Very well done !

Hello Sky,
WSine or not... that's why they invented auto focus!

Well composed image, with good colours and fine details!

Hi Sky,
Splendid shot. Very cool and soothing mood. Lovely soft colours and immaculate sharpness. I like the POV and how the bird is walking away. Very nicely composed and framed. Kudos.

Hello Sky,
I can't help with ID as I didn't go often to Uruguay, lol :) Have you done a world tour or what? OK, I can see that there were some glasses of wine involved here as details are a little soft in my perception but this is a nice composition with beautiful bird and I like this framing. I'll look forward to see if someone knows its ID. I don't have any bird's book about Uruguay's birds here :) Thanks,
Claudine

Despite the wine, this is a very good shot of the Southern Lapwing, Sky :-).
I have seen this bird for the first time, so I have enjoyed looking at it and reading about it in your note.

Hi Sky

This is a nice capture from you again!
Even if the details are a bit soft on this one, i'm sure you did your best in what seemed to be not ideal lighting conditions.
The composition is really good and the pose of the southern lapwing is very nice.
Also very good POV and DOF.

Bravo and TFS
