This little fella decided it wants to stick around rather than migrate south like the others of its species. Fine with me if that means unusual photo ops in winter settings! Lots of fun stuff was had, and it had no care in the world of my presence as it foraged right at my feet at times. It did find lots to eat as well, continually plucking tiny tidbits out of the water. This bird moves non-stop, and is a test of nerves as whenever I had it in the viewfinder it hopped out of view onto another spot before I could take the shot. Fun!!
Canon R6 + 500mm f/4 II + 1.4TC III, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/500s., f/5.6, ISO 1600, natural light, handheld, small crop to help the comp, minor water cleanup, and some eye-work to fix a wonky reflection in it. Oh, and a nasty blue cast neutralized via "Colour Balance" (added lots of reds globally)
