Sooty Shearwater at Race Point

[Ilija Dukovski]

If you are anywhere near Cape Cod these days, you should check out the feeding frenzy of thousands of Shearwaters at Race Point beach.
Among the many Greaters, I managed to find this Sooty.

CC appreciated.

Nikon D700, 300mm+TC1.4, ISO500, f5.6, 1/320s. Crop, slight cleanup.


Thanks,

Love the water drops and the trail of water off the bill.

Like the glassy looking water and the water drops falling and on the head. Exposure looks nice as well. The head looks a bit soft, maybe due to some motion blur so could try some more sharpening there. TFS
