First time I have seen one. I was walking on the beach and had to run back to my car to get my camera. I took several shots before another guy scared it off. Quite pleased.

On of my favorite birds. Lovely soft light and nice low angle. Sharp and nicely composed.
A bit more dof would have worked too. TFS.
Nice composition, light and sharpness are great.
beatifull pose and comp, maybe a noise filter for the BKG for make more soft the BKG
Nice capture Allan. I have seen them but was never able to make an image. Like the colors and filtered light with the overcast sky.
Great shot!!! I really like the pose, real nice light, great detail, and love the water drop at the end of its bill.
Well done.
Allan, great low angle shot. Sharp and nice details of the wings.

Thanks for the comments. I went back to the locations twice without seeing it again. I will try some more but I feel quite lucky to have been there.

very nice low angle and good details, I see a slight yellow cast
