This curlew is highlighted by the early morning sun as he struts across the mud of the River Yar, Yarmouth IOW.

THanks, it was a gorgeous (rare) morning. The reflection on the bow of the boat shows how low the sun was so it did add richness. I am picky about focus however and I think I must have focused on the boat rather than the bird, the boat is sharper I am afraid.
