 I was at a wetlands preserve on a boardwalk, when this young Anhinga walked up to me and started posing. Actually just preening, but it looked like posing. That's why I called it "Look Ma....".

I'm sure I'll lose points for clipping the wing feathers, and for the busy background. But these were the best letters this little gal made for me.

the lines of birds provide so many possibilities
the clutter of the background prevents me from really seeing the letters as well as I would like
