BIRD IN FLIGHT ONLY -- share your BIF photos here

An American white pelican rising from the South Saskatchewan River at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada yesterday. It was a bright, sunny mid-morning. I like the way the sun is shining through the flight feathers, producing an orange glow. I also like the effect on the water below the bird.

Thanks! I love those pelicans. Great birds to photograph, at least in Saskatoon.

This weekend, Puffin, Farne Islands Northumberland UK

5DMKIII 70-200mm F2.8 MKII L with 2x Extender MKII, the 70-200mm MKII handles the converters so well! Really impressed, its not even the MKIII converter, quick AF, pretty good IQ little CA tho.

Very nice shot w that combo, Tom. I like the slight motion blur on the wingtips too.
