I've never seen one in real life!

None the less, this is a lovely set that both illustrates the bird and aspects of its behaviour.

Some really nice ones here - I prefer the more abstract ones, particularly nos. 1, 5, 6 & 10. For me, the two shed ones don't work as well. Keep at it - I look forward to seeing some more.

A few from a trip to Burnham Beeches last week on a beautiful crisp day. If you're not familiar with it as a location to visit - it's well worth the trip.

Nice - a real sense of the skilled craftsman at work.

Really good job!! If I was forced to pick one 'favourite', it would be "At low tide".

Both effective, but non-HDR version for me.

I love my 18-135 and it is my walk around lens of choice. The only real downside (at least with my copy) is a far amount of CA at the edge of the frame, particularly in very strong light. However, it is easy to fix in processing.

I'd have no hesitation in recommending it. These were all taken with it (just cut & paste into your browser):-
