:D Nice job Heather. She's a real cutie pie. Looks like she is singing. Very unique.

Cool shot...

This is why I love bird photography so much!!!! I wish that a bird expert would explain what in the world that bird's beak is doing!!!

Cheers,

Mark in Austin

It looks like an actor on stage singing with his eyes closed. I think I would have prefered the eye open but this is still nice. :)

Wonderful image. This is one of the rare images in which a closed eye is better than an open one.

Heh. It seems to be saying, "this 'early bird gets the worm' thing is killing me!".

I bet someone's gonna tell me these willets don't eat worms, huh?

Heather, A most unusual capture. The bill curvature is something I've not seen before. The blue mauve BG is something to kill for.

Enjoy viewing
