Wood stork (Mycteria americana)
This was taken at Wakodahatchee Florida. They are much prettier in the air than on the ground :)
EOS 1Ds, 500mm f/4 IS, at ISO 200, 1/2000 sec, f/4.5. In PS, levels, cropped, and USM.

This really is one of the most attractive Wood Stork images I've seen. Mostly because I can't see the head very well. :) I love the stretched out position but agree that a little crop would be nice also.
