Nice image of Great Stone-Plover. Fine details of large 'goggle' eyes and stout bills. Colours look natural. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

If the bird was facing the other side, then perhaps the eye would have been lighted better and you would have got a catchlight. Nevertheless the exposure is fine. The bright yellow background colours take our attention away. M Krishnan had written eloquently about this bird which can be read in #56 at this link: http://www.indiawilds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8852&page=2
