I previously worked as a news and sports photographer. Recently I have been enjoying wildlife photography. My approach toward bird photos is similar to sports photography. I attempt to capture mostly action and hopefully a unique perspective.
This past weekend I watched this spoonbill as it made a flight across the marsh just prior to sunset.

THIS is a great shot Phil ! Surreal.

What a great photo, Phil! I love the way the clouds are outlined in the soft peachy color. Pretty cool how the shapes out in front of the Spoonbill mimic the direction the bird is heading as well. I’m sure you planned all of that. ;o) All around wonderful image! Thanks for sharing sir.
Be good!

Even the clouds in the background seem to imitate the bird shape. The pre-sunset light gives it a purple colouring. Beautiful!!!
