    Hi Denny Big Warm Welcome !!!!

    Neat looking bird Looks like its ready for breeding Great color !! Might want to give a little more room for the tail feathers. Excellent exposure with great looking whites, sharp and great head angle Hope you can photograph one doing the mating ritual !!! .... btw hope the iguanas will leave them alone !!!

    Great first post Dennis. Excellent details and composition. I'm glad you decided to post, and now that you got the feel we hope you'll be a regular. I met Dennis last Sunday at long key and we had a great time with the ibis flying in to roost.
    A big welcome from the BPN family.
    Regards,

    Hi Dennis - great first post - welcome to the BPN Family :)

    Another D3 user (and 300mm f2.8) :) What can you say - colours are great, HA is spot on and eye contact as well. Agree on more space for the tail feathers.

    More to come I hope.
