This ibis was at Huntington beach State Park.

Paul, great shot. Looks like he is really struggling to get out of the water. Great detail, can even see the blue eye which I love about these guys.

Wonderful detail throughout the bird image and water. Are you panning a hand-held camera? Shots like this fill me with envy!

Now that is a beautiful shot. :) :)

I like this--it almost looks like the bird is surprised he lifted off. Great detail and exposure. I too am jealous--Joanne

Thanks for the comments, everyone. Bob, I wasn't panning. The camera was on a tripod. I focusing on the bird and waited for him to take off. There were a lot of people at Huntington Beach, and I knew it was just a matter of time before someone scared him up.
