Terrific shot in nice light, Vern. That stand-out red eye sure shows up nicely.

Excellent catch Vern.

WOW< fabulous point of view. I'm guessing it was on top of a levee? Or you got all wet. LOL

Good crisp shot of the "killdeer in the headlights" look. . . .
Guest 11-Apr-2010 01:41
Fantastically Shot!!!
Ed Duverger10-Apr-2010 18:55
Very good catch with that fine lens.
Bob Moeller10-Apr-2010 17:18
Wonderful shot! This time of year they lay their eggs in nests on the ground.
Linda G 10-Apr-2010 10:06
I don't believe I've ever seen a killdeer bird. That lens appears to do a good job!

Well done vern, they looks similar to our Spur-winged Plovers.
Jack Hoying10-Apr-2010 03:43
Very nice! I'd like to hear of furthur test with this lens.
Judith Barnett10-Apr-2010 01:58
60mm, I am impressed!
Chris Cochems 10-Apr-2010 00:47
Good shot. Love the low angle. When you shoot from bird level, you really see attitude.
Guest 10-Apr-2010 00:45
Wow! on the mirror lens!
Guest 10-Apr-2010 00:09
Pretty darn Good, Vern!
Guest 10-Apr-2010 00:07
Looks great Vern.

Great image of a Killdeer, looks a little like our Plover.
Rich Strobel09-Apr-2010 23:29
Looks very good Vern, should be an excellent wildlife lens judging from this photo.
Guest 09-Apr-2010 23:10
Pretty good considering it was handheld, makes me wonder how sharp it would be on a tripod. You do a lot better hand holding than I could.
