Stopped at Six Mile Cypress (Ft. Myers Florida) and got nothing, then in a puddle beside the a subdivision found about 40 wading birds including a bunch of mature and immature wood storks.
I caught this fellow flying away, the only one with a good head position really and decently sharp.
D300, 200-400VR, 1/2000th F4 @ ISO500.
Background too busy? Most shots were blue sky behind and frankly tired of them, but I can't decide if this is pleasant change, or a distraction.
By the way, most all of these looked immature, and lacked the crisp black/white colors, some were downright grey. Is that indeed a sign of youth?
Ps. If anyone wants to see a few more woodstorks from that pound:
