    Default Flipped Scoter

    The Surf Scoter is strange enough without this flip, but I though it would be fun to do... Since I had the straight-on pose I gave it a flip from the middle of the head. It looks to me like an impossible bird with large wings sitting on the water.

    Kerry: Looks like an overweight American bird. :-)

    Very cool & well done! It looks like some dreadfully mad bird, immensely spread out to become wide and threatening. If I was in that water, I think I would give this strange critter plenty of space!

    Cool flip, Kerry. I'd give it a wide berth if it was swimming towards me
