I see the pension must be good, John- 600mm f4 - but well worth the investment to get these shots. Tough love indeed. Very good.

Hello Etta, Hendrix & Andrew,

This incident was all over very quickly, but the same pair of Avocets often seem to be right in front of the slipway the photographers use at Nam Sang Wai. Perhaps we'll see more of the same as spring gets closer !

John and Jemi
