Parakeet Auklet

St Paul Island, Alaska

D5, 600, ISO 2000, f5.6, 1/4000
Sitting on the cliff edge, hand holding the 600, trying to get these speeding 10inch bullets was so much fun. Happy to get a banking top shot.

Great topside view and BG colors, Alan, and what a cool-looking bird.

Wow, cool in flight bird. St. Paul Island is a dream for each photographer to be there. Super nice frame.

Sweet! There is one of these oddly hanging around San Francisco at the moment though his plumage is worn compared to this beauty. As I've never done Alaska, it was a new bird for me.

Haven't seen many flight shots of this species and this certainly is an excellent shot.
