Ok, so what are the chances of getting this pose? Most likely none. Beautiful color on the morning sunrise. Like the titel, Good job!

Thanks David. Caught this one as I was walking down the beach. Got a few with his head turned where you can see his beak but I liked this one better.

Thanks Bella. It was a beautiful morning on the gulf that day, especially before sunrise.
