My first talk for Nikon in Tønsberg was a nice experience where I met lots of interesting people. On my way back I stopped on a location I was told should hold a good population of Little Ringed Plovers, Charadrius dubius, which is a very uncommon species on the west coast of Norway where I live. After just minutes of searching I spotted the first bird, and then the second, and the third! After just a short while I had seen five Ringed Plovers in a very small area. This was my first encounter with this cute little bird with the marvellous yellow ring around its eye.

Both the images are taken with the Nikon D3 with 500mm, f/4 @ 1/1250sek, ISO 400

The yellow eye ring certain makes this bird easily identifiable. Excellent photographs!
Thank you for these nice words.
Cheers, Roy
