This bird is high on the list of ‘speed demons’. Since we see them in the water most of the time flight shots are not all that common.
Out of the water they can hardly walk, are clumsy, and slow movers.
They make us assume slow is normal for them.
Impressive is a good description of them flying.
You caught his grace so beautifully, Ted. I really like this one, especially because I know how hard good flight photos are to capture.
Amazing shape!
Wow, what a determination…!…
