20150224 DR 164 Blue Fountain Bird.jpg

Dominican Republic

Helmeted Blue-fountain Bird. Endemic to DR, well actually our resort. A "lifer" for sure. This was one of very few "birds" I saw during our first few days at the resort; hence, I thought I better take a shot as pickings looked pretty slim.

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor 500mm f/4D IF-ED AF-S II
1/1250s f/7.1 at 420.0mm iso220 full exif
