Great shot! Great title for photo. This Kildeer has a crazed looked in it's eye. Great detail and focus. Captures motion very well. A fun well presented photo!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

These birds are so fast! I know they do this, but have yet to witness it.
Stop action, white balance, sharp focus, excellent eye clarity and Superb feather details.
Camera techs are spot on handling the bright sun and showing his shadow.
Incredible Capture!
Great bird photography Greenie!!
Bravo!!

    Thank you Sange! I appreciate the extra star and your nice comments. I was thrilled to get this one and I probably looked as goofy as the bird as I chased after it! :)

I really appreciate your photo because I have tried to photograph kill deer in m town but they move so quickly that my success rate is zero! What a charming and spirited photo in such great focus. Congratulations!

Excellent capture, Grace, showing this beautiful Killdeer performing a ritual and thank you for the interesting notes with this. He almost looks as if he's performing on a stage, singing his heart out too! Excellent lighting and focus showing a lovely crisp image. Great composition. Suzanne

Grace,
A beautiful picture of the Kildeer displaying as it runs on the roas calling & flapping it's wings to draw the potential "Nest Raider" away from it's eggs & nest. it's shadow under it is an added bonus. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Amusing pose as if he's on amok gesture!
This gives Roadrunner a run for his money!
Fantabulous sharply focused
Still motion shot!
Gorgeous shadow!
An artistic rendition. Monochromatic colors. Excellent details & features. Impressive setting & textures. Thanks for sharing...

By the sound of your notes they are actually very clever birds! Being a Brit I have no experience of them!! Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely taken!

Not sure that it hasn't had one to many at the local establishment. Fun shot that is amusing to view. Good focus so that all of the details are very visible. The catch of the eye is wonderful. Good colors. Well seen.

Comment from Malmax


Oh wow Grace, this photograph is so crisp and clearly focus that all the beautiful detail is just amazing.
This is really an outstanding capture if this bird with very informative artist notes.
This really deserves a six, and sadly I don't have one but I think it's an amazingly wonderful shot.
