Wings 1

Wings 1 (Macronectes halli)

Today's theme is wings. I hadn't planned on doing this set, but then I promised to try to settle yesterday's puzzle (touch ... or not?), and that would have broken up the sets I'd planned. So there will be two water sets for weekend fun, then we'll putter back into port over the weekend. So first up, this Northern Giant showing off his wings.
