Eudocimus ruber

Scarlet Ibis at Lakes Regional Park
Fort Myers, Florida USA

I'll guesstimate the bird at a distance of 1600 feet with a heavy crop.
Shot in jpeg format. Three passes of Unsharp Mask in Elements 8.0 at 111%, 0.3, 2.
This is the second of a series of images with the first slightly out of focus.
The bird was traveling due south along the traditional western edge of the park.

Canon EOS 5D Mark II ,Canon EF 600mm f/4L IS USM
1/1600s f/5.6 at 840.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
