There is a location in the corner of this old rice field that has a higher dike wall. At some point during the day it hides the sun. Of course the bird you want to photo heads right over there.

If I’m paying attention a quick change and the shots can be nice. However, in the heat of the moment that’s a big if.

Well done, the brilliant white birds really pop against the darker background.
A quick spot meter change helps too 😁
