Black-necked Stilt

San Elijo Lagoon, Solana Beach, CA

I've have chased these gorgeous little birds all around Pt Mugu in hopes of finding
just one in good lighting so I could get a half decent shot. Well I should have known
better, I just asked Herb and he said follow me in San Elijo Lagoon. This is just one
of several "post quality" shots I got with Herb while in SD this week.

And to stay out of trouble with my wife for all my trapesing around,
here is a shot for her:


Nikon D200 ,Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF
1/640s f/8.0 at 400.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Beautiful shot. Ya know, I lived in MD on the Chesapeake Bay and I don't ever remember seeing any of these birds you capture. And I had a bird book :) V.
