nice shot Denise, was that bird darker than normal or did you just boost your blacks a lot?

Thanks Joel,
There was a fleet of them. There is another picture on Flickr right next to this one with even more.

I really didn't do much in post, that is the color it really was. I don't think I have seen any that were more of a lighter color. Maybe it is an immature male? Could someone help me out here ...have I been mistaking the females from the immature males all this time?

Let's hope not ..... only kidding.....it looks like a female to me.
