Least Tern and background

[Rod Wiley]

This image was created at the Lagoon on Estero Island. I took it from this angle to capture the background colors as well as the Tern setting on the eggs. We don't often get colors whis bold here in SW Florida. Rod

Rod,

Love the vibrant colors. Tern looks great. Agree with Alfred on the tail.

You are right, great background. Also needs a bit more real estate at the bottom.
