I am introduced to the Forum by Ann (http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/member.php/9421-annmpacheco). Thanks to her.
Sharing by far one of my best captures (I am sure it has many problems to this one).
It is pleasure to be a part of this community.
This image was taken at Cape May in Apr-2011. On a cloudy and windy morning with clouds letting few rays on ground intermittently.
Added some Vibrance and removed noise from BG (using surface Blur filter).
Critic and comments are welcome.
