This was taken Monday morning at the raunt in Jamaica Bay while out with some buddies from NWPLI (Len & JimmyG). There were lots of birds but not anything really different, mostly all the typical stuff just maybe more of them.

D2x, 500mm AF-S, ISO 200, 1/500, f5, Ev-.7, Skimmler Ground Pod, Wimberley Head, cropped to 8x12 from full frame onlly.

Off to work.

Terrific shot! Nice composition and that mud looks like it is coming right into the front element of your lens.

George,

Very nice shot. I like the low angle. He looks great against the green background.
