Wow, the hits keep on coming--great shooting, everyone!

That second shot is cool, ChatMechant what is it?

Just to keep my hand in, here's a 100% crop from the K-3 & FA* 600/4. I'm working through the learning curve with that combo. I think this might be a female cowbird--a new arrival in any case.

Thanks, it's just a regular old pelican. Those guys are lots of fun to shoot.

I worked the photo a bit in Lightroom to remove the "haze" caused by the branches in between...
The second one, after processing is much clearer. Good work!
