Reflections always seem to make
shorebird photos more pleasing; in the still water the reflection
is almost as sharp as the bird itself. This Greater Yellowlegs (Tringa melanoleuca) was slowly foraging in a pond in eastern Starr Co., Texas in February 1999. The photo was taken with a Canon EOS 1N & EF 300mm F2.8L lens with a 2X extender. The camera and lens were mounted on a tripod. The film used was Fuji Sensia 100. Greater Yellowlegs are fairly common migrants and wintering birds in Texas; this individual had spent a number of weeks at this particular location. |

The Greater Yellowlegs on the left was working the dge of a small pond in Kenedy Co., Texas, in February, 2000, when he paused to stretch his wing. This image was taken with a Canon EOS 1N and 600mm F/4 L IS lens and 1.4X extender on Fuji Velvia. |
The Greater Yellowlegs above was in Kenedy Co., Texas, in December, 1999.
This image was taken with the same gear as the above shot.

The bird on the left was also in Kenedy Co., Texas, in February, 2002, and was photographed with a Canon EOS 1V and EF 500mm F/4 L IS lens and 2X extender on Fuji Velvia. You can really get a feel for the very long legs of this species in this shot.
