Looking forward to my trip back home to Maryland next week, this will be my first trip back States side in almost six months. Will be visiting Morro Bay in California where I was about two years ago. Spent time photographing shore birds like, Long billed Curlew, Willet and the Marbled Godwit. The early morning light is the best light when shooting these beautiful birds, their long neck, breast and belly are pale brown with dark bars on the breast and flanks; the golden light further accentuates the colors and textures while bringing out details. The full wing stretch and flight pose made this a pleasing image to me. These birds are seen near the shore lines looking for sand crabs as the tide washes them ashore.
