Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

I've always like seeing photos of this species. It's very striking even in poor lighting.

For some reason it hadn't occurred to me that I was looking at a new lifer and also a new species for Birdviewing. I only realized after returning home this was not a Semipalmated Plover!

What I believe is a Meadow Pipit, but please feel free to correct or comment. Seen at Vik, Iceland.

This bird came within 5 feet of me and seemed completely fine with my presence. Seen outside Reykjavik, Iceland last weekend.
