One of the few birds we managed to capture, with both of our lenses on the wrong setting. This one was fairly close, so I guess the Full setting rather than Infinity worked out OK. Most of the others did not.

We went back to the 700-acre Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens in Washington, D.C., to see the lotuses and water lilies in advance of their annual festival this weekend, mainly to avoid the horrendous parking problems during the event.

It’s an amazing area within the D.C. city limits and only a 12-minute drive from our house. We need to go there more often!
