p.1 #1 · Lapwing & Godwit (9)

I think I did find a good spot to see lapwing and godwit in action.

I would have liked to stayed longer but the weather changed in everyones disadvantage.
All images are 50% crops with the exception of the final three.
I took these images in 20 minutes. But in the 50 minutes I was out there I gathered enough material for 3 very different posts.......
Thanks for looking. C&C are welcome.

6) Godwit

7) They really should do that much closer to me. Unfortunately heavy crops.

Nice inflight series Chris. The first couple of crow images look like fighter planes chasing off a bomber. Well done.

Excellent IF shooting and some beautiful wing displays and aerial poses! My gosh that is some great color on the topsides of the Lapwing Chris.

The formation flying with the Crow looks cool.

Fun stuff!

Thank you Eric. The crow was very intimidated by the two godwit. Great to witness.

Thank you Ken. Agree, lapwings are very neat. Especially their unpredictable flight pattern.
