Nice capture Bob.

It is absolutely a hard job for we digiscoper at  this kind of action photo, but you did it and captured timely. Congratulation.   :

Mike,

I had to leave a few shots for both you and Wing, also I had to go and eat my "worm"  :roll:  :roll:  :evil:

I like the way how the worm is moving, yet you got a crystal clear image of the sandpiper!!Great shot!!

I do miss the time of digiscoping somtimes, back then when every one was still using it. Well, our gears were nowhere as good as yours now (Nikon coolpix 990 + Lieca Scope), but it served us for about 4-5 years until we changed to DSLRs.

Mike, Bob,

You remind me why the birds went to some hidden place once they got food. :

Bob,

In fact, you have shown me this piece on spot.

Thanks Wing, you can verify that I didn't cheat on the refection as you saw the shot in the camera just after it was taken

Merry Christmas to you all

Great shot, Bob.  

Like to see this sandpiper caught a big worm, and it was struggling.  8)
