They also (as you can tell by the dirt on his beak) like to dig for worms and insects.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

Any idea why it would come out like that? Several shots look that way. Canon 50D, 40D, Tokina 12-24,Canon 18-55,Canon 28-135 IS, Canon 50 1.8,Canon 75-300 5.6,
