Bad Hair Day

Bad Hair Day

Description

I took this in late afternoon at Assateague NWR in VA a couple weeks ago, using my Canon Mark II with Canon 100-400 mm L lens at 400 mm, hand held. Settings were 1/1500, f6.7, ISO 400. I liked that the wind was blowing his feathers up on the back of his head, making it a "bad hair day" image.
