    This species is fairly uncommon in our area.
    You might find a couple in a good day winter time if you are lucky.
    Thanks for looking.

    Beautiful, Karl. The upstretched wings and splash make this one for me.

    Karl:

    Good timing and framing here. Splash and wing position tell the story (as Grace implied)

    Good choice of aperture.

    Cheers

    This guy seems to be walking on water! very nice one, light, pose and eye contact. Also the splash helps adding action to your image!

    Excellent image. Beautiful wing position, blue water and flash of water.
