Snow Bunting

By Gezina  
Thank you for your kind c'c on the Lapwing in flight shot - always grateful.
I am really pleased to add a photo of this little bird to my p/f.
Collins bird guide describe them as " Quite confiding birds, restless and mobile, continually on the move" and I've experienced exactly that - don't think I've ever taken so many shots of a species and binned so many at the same time Tongue at least there were a few keepers as well - Ina

Superb, stunning, fantastic and oh yes ....not 3 bad Ina.
Seriously brilliant low pov and detail, better than the last one I saw as the turn of head adds impact to the image
