Lens: Pentax DA 16-85mm Camera: K-3II Photo Location: Santa Barbara, CA ISO: 100 Shutter Speed: 1/320s Aperture: F7.1

Sometimes the tables are turned and the birds come to people watch. I took this from about 10' or less away, so he was obviously a regular at the harbor. Although I much prefer wildlife in their natural setting, it is not often that we get such a good close-up of these beautiful birds unless at a zoo.
