Wood Stork Stretching...

[Joseph Przybyla]

I captured this image this morning at Circle B Bar Reserve in Polk County, Florida. I never realized until today that Wood Storks have bubble gum colored feet. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Nice detail on the bird. Good perch.

I like how the perch runs through the frame, sharpness and composition. Nice image Joe.

Hi Joe. A great ruffled pose, and I love those bubble-gum feet. There's that rich blue Florida sky again.
