Great find....neat looking birds

Awesome looking birds. Never seen one.

Fantastic shot and edit....considering that even with a 600mm lens they still looked like pin dots until cropped way in! Excellent work!

These are so cool!! シ

GASP! Fab shot!! at Cannon Beach??!! What time of year are they there? As soon as Twitterdick has toppled from his throne, I'll plan another trip south. :)
