I captured this image of a whooping crane taking off at Aransas national wildlife preserve. It was early morning and we disturbed his morning feeding.

Great to see a close shot of one of these rare birds Ry. We saw a few in Kansas a couple years back but couldn't get anywhere close to them. The bright whites are really tough to control, perhaps a bit lower iso setting or a bit lower Exposure Value (EV) would have helped you get more detail in the wing.

I like this slightly askew orientation of the bird with head and wings seemingly in one direction and the feet in another! Well done.
