I watched this bird for quite a while this past September as it sat on this rock crying out to be fed by it;'s parents...who were still happy to oblige by the way.
The tide was coming in and I knew it was just a matter of time before junior got swamped, and fortunately, I was able to capture his dunking :)

Way cool. Those guys are really beautiful. Too bad the young birdie forgot to raise his wings up high...
later and love and great EXP control, artie
