I spotted this ruddy turnstone ruffling its feathers.

Thanks, Mitch. I usually shoot with the aper as open as possible for the best light (f/5.6-f/6.5) but I think I'll try some shots like this with f/7.1-f/8.0 since the light is usually pretty good and see if they look better with a deeper dof.

Nice catch! Looks like it is scrunching it's eyes shut.

Cool shot! Another new bird for me.

thanks, Jeff. It was doing just that. It closed it's eyes and shook like a wet dog out of water.

Cool shot! Another new bird for me.

Thank you, Pete. I'm glad you got to see one finally. I'll put up a better picture of one.
