From February 2012, Fort De Soto park. I caught this one in PM light just after another lively attempt at a meal. Full width cropped from top to 3:2 aspect.

E-5 ZD 300 F2.8 + EC-20 on Wimberley I, ISO 400 1/2500 f6.3 -1/3EV

This species always looks crazy with that hairdo and the bi-colored beak adds to the appearance in this one, Bill.  I like the little stream of water from the beak.  Excellent detailand exposure.

Excellent behavioral image.  I really like the light and the detail.  Well composed.
