Black Tail Godwit.
Hi All.
picture taken in Iceland. Techs. Nikon D100 100-400mm lens taken at 220mm. 1/640 sec F5.6 ISO 400. I cropped top and bottom a little bit and I cloned out some white daisies. All comments welcome.

Really like this John.... the slight wing movement adds some impact to a super pose from the bird, well timed and taken.
