I don't know how you looked at the time Raul, but this bird looks as though it just knows there's nothing to do but endure the weather. :eek!: What a face, I feel sorry for it! :-C I especially like that sad droplet at the tip of the beak. :'D I hope you fared better, but this splendid shot was worth getting wet for - great work, it really is a beauty! :clap:
 
Speaks volumes about the "intrepid" photographer: wind, rain, sleet or snow, as it were. Good shot. :t: :t: :t: :t: D:
