Found this little guy doing his morning stretches. Shot at Lover's Key in Florida.
Taken with the tamron 70-300 and the XT

:) i am standing next to him. He wasn't shy at all. It was my first bird experience and it was great. I had so much fun watching him do his thing. Thanks for the comments. Next time, i will definately try and get lower.
