Thanks Ken it was a very lucky shot I had just walked onto the beach when both of them broke cover from under the cotton trees, the very low angle was because I was laying on my stomach on the sand

Fantastic bird, excellent ("on my stomach") angle, and a marvelous background!
Very nicely done!
Cheers!
