Sanderling Feeding

Sometimes it takes some effort to get to your veggies. This Sanderling is in full stretch mode to get his breakfast out of the sand.

Taken with Canon 7D and Canon 500mm F4 IS II lens with 1.4x III teleconverter mounted on Skimmer ground pod and Wimberley II head.

1/1250 sec @ F5.6, ISO 400, evaluative metering, +1/3 exposure compensation, 700mm

That’s certainly a unique capture. Nice job of timing it.

Hey MIssy. I’d like to say pasta but most likely some type of invertebrate prey buried in the sand. Of course I knew that, ya right. Had to look that one up.
