Both Sides Now
Black-necked Stilt, Himantopus mexicanus, a lifer for me.
Seen in Seabourne Creek while following the Texas Master Naturalists Coastal Prairie Chapter April Bird Hike.
Tech Note: Shooting a fast burst adds 25% to the crop factor, so this one is actually 750mm, or 1125mm full frame equivalent, handheld at 1/160s. Pretty good stabilization.
