Redshank






Photographed at Morston Quay in Norfolk. I really like Redshank, especially their call. I was pleased to get these flight shots it is an area I very much want to improve on but I think it needs dedication and patience great light and good equipment.
A lot of my bird photography is what I come across on walks and during brief spells in hides. The great opportunities invariably pass by either due to the light or lens not fast enough to focus. I need to become more patient.

Hi Mike,

Great shots. That is one of my ambitions, to photograph birds in flight. I think one has to consentrate on the larger birds first as they are not quick flyers, whereas the little birds you need to be very quick, never mind the camera not being quick enough.
