Very nice getting a view of the orange crown - I rarely see that on these birds. The low angle and head-on view work well here.

Nice techs on this Sandy. Was this in Texas also? If so, very jealous you found one of these to shoot. I have never seen one in the wild before...congrats!

Kurt, this one was across the street in a neighbor's large "birdbath" here in CA!
But I did find a couple in Texas as well, and will post those next week.
