Flamingo

Just noticed how a flamingo's bill looks like it has a zip running along it.  Brings a whole new meaning to being tight-lipped!

That really does looks like a zipper. I love the shape of the neck here too.
David Atkinson: Thanks, Jacquelyn. It's always worth taking a closer look at nature.Cheers, Dave.
Very good shot Dave, I'd never realised that either.

Hahaha very good Dave
David Atkinson: Glad you like it, Bill. Cheers, Dave.
You're right. I've not noticed before, either. Very good shot. Looks a bit mean.
David Atkinson: Thanks very much, Graeme. You're right, he does look a bit mean. Cheers, Dave.
The curves and proportions are really good Dave, even tho' he's "keeping it zipped!"
David Atkinson: Thanks Neil. I'm happy with the framing on this. Admittedly, the flamingo did most of the work! wink
Trying to get himself all into the frame I see David.
David Atkinson: He did indeed! Thanks for dropping by, Chad. Cheers, Dave.
Not quite sure how on earth I managed to miss this one Dave - stunningly good composition!
