Peeseek.....

Description

Animals - July 10/09

The call of the Collard Aracari is a loud, sharp pseek... or peeseek! Loud enough for a person to want to scout him out hiding in tree canopies of South America. I was thrilled to spot this one at the Bird Kingdom in Niagara Falls, Canada.
(F 5.6 @ 1/180 sec., 200 ISO, Pattern, Focal Len. @ 200 mm., tight crop, and just added USM 70 %)

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/180 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 200.00 mm, Model: PENTAX *ist D
