Hey all, been a while since I posted a shot, just got back from Antigua.

These are very noisy birds and probably the most common in Antigua, this was taken against the background of the ocean so came out with a nice creamy background.

Canon 5d + 500mmF4 ISO 100

Thanks for looking.

Nice one! Great detail on the bird, and I like how the plant provides a splash of color against the background.

Thanks Jack, yeah I was going to clone out the plant but thought it would be a nice contrast.
