Such lovely wildlife you have there in Florida! If I keep looking at your pictures I'll be moving down there before next winter, LOL!

Beautifuly shot! It's all about being in the right place at the right time. Maybe someday my out of car pics will be this good.

PS: Just don't get caught shooting while driving, otherwise they'll make that a new law in California. :)

Perhaps somewhat small, but the feathers are beautiful!

So cool!! (Just be careful while driving!)

I do think that it's neat that his wing dips below the frame, it really does give the affect of "flying under the radar".

Wish my "out the window of the car while moving" shots turned out this good. Mine are just a big blurry mess.

I look forward to seeing more!
