Limpkin

Big and Bold ~ 3 of 3

My final Big and Bold bird is the Limpkin. I have photographed four different Limpkins in the last week in all positions but I’m sticking with profile shots in my series of large birds for the moment. This bird was eating Mystery Chinese Snails and was in very low morning light . I liked the reflection of yellow fall color from distant trees to frame the bird. I just hope all of these southern birds decide its time to return to their home base soon,
