    Default Skimmer


    Skimmer, Nickerson Beach, Long Island

    Had a chance to get out Thursday to Nickerson. The skimmers hatched out a load of eggs, little chicks all over the place and egg shells too. Was fun watching the little guys getting out from under Mommy to look around and get a fish from Dad or visa verse.

    I walked to the shore and caught this guy preening and shaking around.

    D3, 600VR, ISO200, f8, 1/1000, Hand Held.

    I like the pose and angle, exposure control looks good, too. I look forward to skimmer chick images.

    Lovely, a wonderful mix of color. I like the stuff on the beach even.
