One of a huge flock of Wilson's storm-petrels dancing on the water on George's Bank, some 125 miles south of Nova Scotia on a recent pelagic birding trip. Nikon D500, 300 f4-PF-VR with 1.4 TC, hand-held on a moving boat, 1/3200 at f7.1. Processed in LR cc. Thanks for looking and comments.

Wonderful. These guys are so small and quick they're tough to capture in my experience- well done.
