From this past spring here in FL.  This adult spoonbill was landing on a small grassy area where its fledged young had just landed.

Thanks for looking.

You cannot save time, you can only spend it wisely, or perhaps, freeze a moment of it forever in a photograph

Focus is spot-on this one. Great detail as a result where it need to be.
