Nickerson Beach a few weeks ago. First time photographing birds on my own, applying the tips and techniques I learned during a recent shorebird workshop. Missed sunrise, unfortunately...but learned a lot during the shoot nonetheless.

Wonderful backgrounds!
Those black terns are cool looking.
What kind are they?

Thanks for sharing!

Much appreciated!
The first is an American Oystercatcher. The second and third are black skimmers (who decided not to skim for me that day).The last one is a Common Tern!

Edit: thank you @Dragonfire for correcting my brainfart.

I burned quite a bit that morning! My wife definitely let me have it when I got home! Never again will I forget it.

Hi there. It's encouraging to see posts from those just starting out in wildlife, especially bird photography and producing great results like yours. It's motivated me to share some photos from my recent journey to the Arctic, which was my first experience photographing wildlife and birds specifically.
