Spoonbill in Flight

Spoonbills are very strange looking birds. In Lake Nakuru National Park, they are plentiful. I managed this shot early one morning on the Western shore of the lake. The light was good and it came close enough for me to frame the picture exactly as I wanted. I love it when a plan works!

Nikon D700, Sigma 150-500mm OS at 380mm, F6.3, 1/3200s, ISO 640, handheld.
