Picture of the Day -July 23rd, 2008

Sometime you just play the hand you’re being dealt. This Woodstork

the bird itself is great, with the crepuscular rays on top of it make the shot even more impressive.

I would say that it did more than “work out”…it’s terrific! It’s like the stork has its own spotlight from heaven. He looks ready to rise up into the light.

If it weren’t for some of those perceived ‘lousy hands’ we are dealt — we may not take chances that end up to be some of our favorites - a very neat shot!

With those sunbeams behind him he looks like a heavenly messanger. So what was he saying to you? Take more photos!
