Man's heart away from nature becomes hard. ~Standing Bear I believe in God, only I spell it "Nature". ~Frank Lloyd Wright, quoted, 14 August 1966 With innovation and technology, seems we have forgotten to cherish the true beauty the world has to offer. ~A.C. Van Cherub
I would like to see how big these birds are so the next time you go to the zoo, do you suppose you could stand next to it so I could get a feel for the scale of things? lol. Another great shot, Jimbob.
Well you recovered quite nicely, Jim. He's still squacking about something I see. He reminds me of Mr. Burns on the Simpsons. Lots of character in this guys manner. Great shot.
He doesn't look any happier here Jimbob but this is also a nice capture with sharp details. With that dark background you still managed a good job here.
Makes my recent posting of a cranky seagull look kinda puny. :-) I wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of this fellow. Actually I think the lighting adds muscle to your photo's impact. Well done.
Wonderful capture JimBob - it looks as though he is really upset with someone. A wonderful shot of our national bird. I like the lighting - You did a great job. Good Luck to the Cleveland Indians this season.
reminds me of wor-lass having 'a-go' at me!...
Excellent snap here mate!..
