Black-necked Stilt in High-key Setting

I got another shot of a black-necked stilt (Himantopus mexicanus). It is such an interesting bird! I loved the high-key setting at Fern Ridge Wildlife Area. Seeing this bird was a real treat for me! It is a striking bird, with black-and-white color and long, thin red legs. It is found along the edges of shallow water in open areas like found in the wildlife area.
