A good way to get the ball rolling!! Glad to see the season is gearing up for you,,,we're winding down for the winter months - hopefully we'll have some good winter visitors like last year. Looking forward to more new images from you :-)

Gracias, Maestro
Great to see you back at it. And an excellent portrait to boot I love the little drop forming at the tip of the bill.:)
Love the image but am so very sorry you didn't let me know that you were in the area I'm only 1 mile from there and would have love to meet you, hope for the next time.

Bill, it was a last minute decision, we had to go to Boca and decided to extend the trip a couple of hours midday today.
Next time, I promise :)
A great portrait...love that water dripping off the bill of this well-exposed stork! Glad to have you guys back at it. I see that you are rolling out the 2009 model birds ahead of schedule!
Hi Fab,
Love the water drop. Good exposure and details.
Great textures in there Fabs. You've managed the lights and darks well - a really crusty character!
