That's a tremendous picture you've taken of this displaying Lapwing Ove.... and the thrift really sets the image off so nicely too.

Excellent work my friend. Thanks lad.

Beautiful capture Ove, I'd forgotten they display with this sort of "mantling" posture. The orange undertail coverts are showing well. Excellent work as per usual.
